His more than thirty years of academic and applied research has been focused on the gas-solid fixed and fluidized bed reactors.

In the SOHIO process, propylene, ammonia, and air ( oxidizer ) are passed through a fluidized bed reactor containing the catalyst at 400 510 �C and 50 200 kPag.

In order to determine the appropriate design for cooling or heating of the circulating fluidized bed reactors, a good approximation of heat transfer rates are necessary for better control so that the reactors can change its performance for different operating conditions.
14.
FR vessels facilitate a low gas and solid retention ( and hence reactant contact time ) for industrial applications which give rise to a high throughput, pure product and less than ideal thermal distribution when compared to other fluidized bed reactors.
15.
Fluidized beds are used for several purposes, such as fluidized bed reactors ( types of chemical reactors ), fluid catalytic cracking, fluidized bed combustion, heat or mass transfer or interface modification, such as applying a coating onto solid items.

That month it also announced the implementation of " high-pressure fluidized bed reactor " ( HP-FBR ) technology, producing high-purity polysilicon up to 10 times more efficiently and with 90 % less energy used than non-FBR technologies.

A somewhat related field, the study of controlling such chaotic bubble dynamics ( control of chaos ), converts them to periodic oscillations, and has an important application to gas solids in fluidized bed reactors, also applicable to the ammoxidation of propylene to acrylonitrile ( Kaart, Schouten, and van den Bleek, 1999 ).

Besides, he has contributed chapters to books edited by others and has published seven edited or authored texts, including " Recent Trends in Chemical Reaction Engineering ", " Advances in Transport Processes ", " The Analysis of Chemically Reacting Systems : A Stochastic Approach " and " Transport processes in fluidized bed reactors ".
