1197. GILLILAND, E. R. Techniques of Contacting Fluids and Solids. 5th Westman Memorial Lecture; Canadian Chem. Process Ind., vol. 34, 1950, pp. 632-640. Discusses techniques of fixed, moving, and fluidized beds in industrial operations. The greatly improved heat-transfer characteristics in the fluidized bed are emphasized; it merits consideration for any reaction in which (1) temperature control within the reaction or (2) heat transfer to and from the reaction vessel, or (3) frequent, alternate cycles with the catalyst are necessary.
