Fixed Bed Reactor
Put on your red and blue 3D-glasses for an impression of ExplainMedia's latest addition to the "Virtual Refinery" suite of 3D process simulator extensions: The Fixed Bed Reactor. A high-definition version is available on ExplainMedia's YouTube channel.
Catalyst Dense Loading
ExplainMedia has delivered a promotion video to Hydroprocessing Associates, LLC ("HPA"), a U.S. and Singapore based company, specialized in reactor dense loading and related services. HPA's dense loader, known as the Hydropac, has many advantages, and ExplainMedia used 3D animations to illustrate this. The video offers cut-out views of the reactor, animations of the Hydropac in operation, and a focus on how catalyst is loaded.
New Business Development

Training Video Development
For subjects that require more than a short animation or some written text, a narrated training video could be a suitable solution. We offer a complete development service of video production that includes 3D visualization, storyboarding, script writing, video shoots, narration, acting, editing, and authoring.
This service has been particularly popular with petrochemical companies needing materials about specialized equipment and procedures.
Following is a list of selected training videos we custom produced:
- Breechlock A-Style and B-Style Exchanger. Narrated video covering the anatomy, opening, cleaning and closing of both types Breechlock Exchangers.
- Steam Generator Control. Narrated video covering steam generator control, blowdown procedures, priming, fouling, and silica carry-over.
- Flooded Condenser Pressure Control. Narrated video explaining the pressure control mechanism for a fractionator by flooding the condenser.
- Reactor Turnaround Procedures. Narrated video covering the reactor turnaround procedures including catalyst loading and unloading.
- Reactor Effluent Air Cooling Systems. Narrated video about the REAC system, including HPS.
- Distillation. Narrated video covering the fundamentals of distillation operation.
- Introduction to High Pressure Reactor Feed Furnace Operation and Maintenance. Narrated video covering basic furnace operation, flame patterns, cleaning methods, temperature monitoring, and burner maintenance.
- OCR. Video visualizing the OCR reactor internals, flow, and basics of catalyst replacement.
- OCR Catalyst Handling System. DVD covering the catalyst withdrawal and addition procedure for an OCR unit.
- High Pressure Separator. Video clip visualizing separation of gas and liquid.
- Chemistry. Various video clips covering Desulfurization, Demethilization, Denitrification, Result of heavy feed, Result of heatwave, and Saturation.
- Up Flow Reactor (UFR). Video clips, visualizing internals and flow inside an Up Flow Reactor.
- Reactor Inspection CBT. Interactive application in which the user needs to identify problems, fill out checklist as part of a reactor inspection.
- Accident Visualization. Video clip to visualize how fast a situation can get out of control.
- Bubble Column. Video clip visualizing the results of too much velocity in a bubble column reactor.
- Pulse Wave. Video clip visualizing a pulse flow in a catalyst bed.
- Liquid Holdup. Video clip visualizing various liquid holdups in the catalyst bed. Includes: dynamic-, static-, and internal-holdups as well as bedvoids.
- Radial Flow. Video clip visualizing the basics of a radial flow reactor.
- Calming Depth. Video clip visualizing the concept of calming depth and the differences between using chimneys, bubble-caps, and isomix nozzles.
- Back-mixing and catalyst lifting. Video clip visualizing the result of too high velocity in an up flow reactor resulting in catalyst lifting and back-mixing.
