CATALYTIC REACTOR Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B01J8/02 C01B3/38 

FIELD: chemical industry; production of the catalytic reactors.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the chemical industry, in particular, the catalytic reactor, which contains a set of the sheets forming the channels of the streams between them. In each channel of a stream there is the wavy material foils, which surfaces are coated with the catalytic material, except for the places where they contact to the sheets. On each end of the reactor there are the gas-collecting mains for the gaseous mixtures feeding in the channels of the streams. At that the gas-collecting mains are communicating with the adjacent channels separately. The reactor realizes feeding of the various gaseous mixtures in the adjacent channels , which may be under the different pressures, and the corresponding chemical reactions in them are also different. When one of the reactions is endothermic reaction, then the other reaction is exothermal; the heat is transmitted through the sheets separating the adjacent channels from the exothermic reaction to the endothermal reaction. The reactor may be used in the compact-type installation for realization of conversion of the methane with the steam, for production of the necessary heat at the methane catalytic combustion, and also Fisher-Tropsh synthesis, so this general method includes conversion of the methane in the long-chain hydrocarbons. The technical result of the invention is realization of the gaseous phases reactions at the increased pressures and especially for realization of the highly exothermal and endothermal reactions.

EFFECT: the invention ensures realization of the gaseous phases reactions at the heightened pressures and especially for realization of the highly exothermal and endothermal reactions.
