Abstract

An isothermal reactor for carrying out heterogeneous exothermic or endothermic reactions, includes within a catalytic bed (3) housed in an appropriate outer shell (2), at least one tube (13) for the passage of a cooling or heating fluid which advantageously extends within the bed (3) along a plane substantially perpendicular with respect to opposed perforated side walls (4, 5) of the catalytic bed.
