With the single-phase technology is possible to control the hydrogen and substrate concentrations at the catalyst surface to an extent impossible at multiphase conditions.
|
| | · |
With supercritical fluids it is possible to reach high concentrations of both hydrogen and substrate at the same time.
|
| | · |
At single-phase conditions it is possible to reach volumetric reaction rates 100 times higher than at multi-phase conditions.

| | · |
Supercritical fluids increase the diffusivity.
|
| | · |
With supercritical fluids it is possible to tune both solubility and diffusivity.
|
| | · |
At single-phase conditions it is much easier to control the temperature in the whole reactor than at multiphase conditions.
|
| | · |
It is much easier to scale-up a single-phase process than a multiphase process
