REACTOR TO RUN A REACTION OF OXIDATION OF A LIQUID BY A GAS Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC B01J10/00 C07C35/08 

FIELD: chemical industry; reactors to run reactions of oxidation.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the field of chemical industry, in particular, to reactors to run reactions of oxidation of a liquid by a gas. The reactor may be used for oxidation of a hydrocarbon, for example, cyclohexane with formation of cyclohexyl hydroperoxide, cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone and-or adipinic acid. The reactor is divided into stages by the separating plates supplied with the through holes. The holes are uniformly distributed along the surface of the separating plates, coincide with the unidirectional flow of the reaction mixture and prevent accumulation of a gas under each plate. The plates have a coefficient of rectification in the interval from 10 up to 50 %. An oxidable compound and an oxidizing gas containing oxygen are fed only into the bottom part of the reactor. The offered invention is simple in operation, allows to increase output of the final product and to avoid the risk of a self-inflammation of the gas mixture.

EFFECT: the invention is simple in operation, ensures increased output of the final product and lets to avoid the risk of a self-inflammation of the gas mixture.
