A two-dimensional pseudo-homogeneous model was established to simulate the fixed bed methanation reactor. The numerical model was solved by MATLAB code and validated by comparing the numerical results with experimental data obtained from an industrial side-stream test. Results show that a bed aspect ratio of 2~3 is helpful to reduce heat loss and keep the hot spot below 700 . A feed temperature of 400 can accelerate reaction rate and lead to a higher bed temperature of
