Despite more than 100 years of commercialization of wide-ranging fluidized bed reactors, scale-up tools and methods have remained quite similar. To exploit the benefits of fluidized beds for the time-critical sustainability challenges, scale-up has to be implemented quicker and better.
This webinar on Barracuda Virtual Reactor 24.0, to be hosted by CPFD on May 8, 2024, provides overview of new features and enhancements including rotating and time-varying gravity, particle-to-particle thermal conduction, and SFF option to disable interpolation between rows.

CPFD Software enters into a 2-year software licensing contract with ENEA of Italy. ENEA uses Barracuda Virtual Reactor simulation software for the simulation of a dual fluidized bed (DFB) system aimed at the modelling of several components of the EU research infrastructure ZECOMIX (Zero Emissions of Carbon with Mixed technologies).
This article highlights the collaboration between CPFD Software and the University of Hull in utilizing Barracuda Virtual Reactor for pioneering research on low-carbon hydrogen production through Sorption-enhanced steam reforming, showcasing the software’s efficiency, scalability, and pivotal role in advancing sustainable technologies.
