Advantages vs. Disadvantages

Equilibrium Reactor Example
Select reactor type (standard, methanation, shift)
Methanation reactor provides all necessary stoichiometry and equilibrium data specifically for example reactions 1 and 2
Select conversion mode
Reaction conversion ignores equilibrium data and uses a specified percent conversion
Approach delta T calculates equilibrium conversion at a certain temperature above or below reactor T
Approach fraction estimates conversion of reaction that does not completely reach equilibrium
