REACTOR FOR CATALYTICALLY DECONTAMINATING GASES UNDER NONSTATIONARY CONDITIONS Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: chemistry; chemical engineering. SUBSTANCE: reactor includes upright cylindrical housing having cover, bottom and gas inlet and outlet pipes communicating with gas discharge pipe via reversing valve system. Reactor is further provided with two vertical partitions hermetically communicating with bottom and side walls, fitting tightly to cover and positioned with certain gap relative to reactor bottom.
