REACTOR FOR SYNTHESIS OF THE AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B01J8/02 

FIELD: chemical industry; reactors for synthesis of the aromatic hydrocarbons.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the field of the processes and the apparatuses of the chemical technology and may be used in the processes of conversion of the light hydrocarbon into the aromatic hydrocarbons. The reactor includes the body, the cover and the bottom, the unions for inlet of the initial gaseous mixture and the outlet of the target product, the gas-permeable horizontal partition, on which there is the immovable bed of the granular particles of the catalytic agent. Inside the reactor with a clearance to the main body the additional internal wall is installed, which has been made out of the sheet metal plate, the upper part of which is connected to the main body, and the lower part of which is connected with the gas-permeable horizontal partition. On the inlet union there is the mounted distributing device consisting of the inlet annular channel, the central axially symmetric outlet channel, several fitting pipes connecting the indicated channels and arranged tangentially to the indicated outlet channel, and the rod baffle. The invention ensures the homogeneous stirring of the two-phase flow at the inlet of the reactor and the flow uniform distribution on the catalyst bed, reduction of the heat losses through the walls of the reactor and feeding of the additional heat into the lower part of the catalyst bed.

EFFECT: the invention ensures the homogeneous stirring of the two-phase flow at the inlet of the reactor, the flow uniform distribution on the catalyst bed, the reduced losses of the heat through the walls of the reactor and the feeding of the additional heat into the lower part of the catalyst bed.
