Project Description

The BCT-Loop Reactor from BUSS ChemTech is the perfect tool for optimising catalytic hydrogenation reactions. Switching from the conventional stirred reactor solution to BCT-Loop Reactor technology enables you to achieve:

  • shorter reaction times / lower temperature / lower pressure
  • higher selectivity / higher yield
  • lower catalyst consumption
  • reduced solvent charge

Furthermore, the Buss Loop® allows maximum flexibility in working volume as the reactors can operate between 30 and 110% of nominal capacity, while still providing the same heat transfer area, the same mixing efficiency and therefore the same mass transfer rates. This is a very important benefit, particularly for multipurpose plants.
