TAP-reactor

TAP is a time-resolved technique for precise kinetic characterization of gas-solid reactions in catalysis, adsorption, and other applications. Unlike in conventional kinetic devices (e.g. well-mixed or tubular flow reactors), gas transport in the TAP reactor occurs via Knudsen diffusion – a special transport regime whereby molecules collide with the reactor walls and catalytic surfaces, but not with each other.

More information about the TAP-reactor and the group can be found at the group pages.
