Abrégé

Improved reactors for catalytic, exothermic gas phase reactions with, as seen in the flow direction of a feed gas, which contains at least one oxidant and at least one component to be oxidized, an entry zone (1), a reaction zone (2) comprising at least one catalyst (4) and an exit zone (3) for the product gas are described. The reactors, at least in the area of the entry zone (1), have means, for example insulating jackets (6) and/or devices for the transport of cooling agents, which decrease the transport of heat produced in the reaction zone (2) into the entry zone (1) and thus decrease the risks of pre-ignition of the feed gas mixture employed or of the course of undesired side reactions in the entry zone (1) and/or wherein the inner walls of the reactor, at least in the area of the entry zone (1), are elaborated from inert material. The feed gas enters into the entry zone (1) as a homogeneous gas mixture with respect to its substance composition via one or more feed lines (30). The reactors can especially be employed for ammonia oxidation, for example in nitric acid plants, in which transition metal catalysts preferably elaborated in honeycomb form with smaller cross sections than the customarily employed platinum gauzes are used.

Abrégé

A process for the separation of the aromatic compounds benzene, toluene and xylene from an aromatics-containing reformate gasoline and pyrolysis gasoline or a coke-oven light oil or an aromatics-containing refinery stream, in which the aromatics are separated by an extractive distillation uses a novel solvent combination made up of the compounds n,n′-diformyl piperazine or 2,2′-bis-(cyanoethyl)ether in a combination with n-formyl morpholine as a second solvent for extractive distillation so that the solvent combination obtained shows a higher selectivity with regard to the aromatics to be extracted so that a lower solvent load is required. The aromatics-containing feed mixture is first submitted to a pre-distillation so that the obtained fraction has a narrow boiling point range. This fraction is then submitted to an extractive distillation in a first column, in which an aromatics-lean head product of predominantly paraffinic hydrocarbons is obtained as well as an aromatics-enriched bottom product. The bottom product is passed to a second column in which an aromatics-rich raffinate is obtained by reducing the pressure or increasing the temperature so that the extracting solvent combination obtained as bottom product can be recycled into the process.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method for obtaining a pure product which contains aromatic compounds. The pure product is obtained by extractive distillation of a benzene which is rich in aromatic compounds, and olefins, diolefins and polyolefins being removed. The extractive distillation is followed by hydration of the resulting product stream which is rich in aromatic compounds and low in olefins, the alkylated aromatic compounds, especially toluol and xylols being dealkylated, and the paraffinic dealkylation products being reacted to give methane so that due to the nature of the hydration step after the extractive distillation the amount of hydrogen can be considerably reduced since the mixture of aromatic compounds is free of olefins and no hydrogen is required for olefin hydration. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out said method, preferably a column being used for extractive distillation which column allows an extractive distillation with solvent recirculation, thereby eliminating the need for an additional stripping column for removing the extracted solvent.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method for carrying out dehydrogenation reactions with a downstream gas scrubbing process, followed by a release step in a "high-pressure flash container" provided with mass transfer elements. Said step is carried out with a combustion gas during the flow of the mass transfer elements against the force of gravity, the combustion gas flowing through the "high-pressure flash container" in the counter-flow with the released solvent, such that the absorbed hydrocarbons are taken up in the combustion gas. In a preferred form of embodiment, the combustion gas is the feed gas, for example propane. In another form of embodiment, the combustion gas is the hot gas, for example, natural gas, which is used to heat the dehydrogenation reactor. In order to increase the efficiency of the process, the hydrocarbon flow separated from the acid gas is guided back into the process gas path upstream of the gas scrubbing.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method for removing sour gases from raw gases (1). The removed sour gases are intended to accumulate at a high regeneration pressure. This enables the sour gases to be transported to a storage area with a minimum effort for compression. The raw gas (1) is fed into an absorption column (40) and there purified of the sour gas components present in the raw gas (1), under increased operational pressure, by means of a physical absorption agent (16). The absorption agent (5) charged with sour gases and useful gases is then fed into a high-pressure stripping column (43), in which a portion of the absorption agent is vaporized, and a stripping vapor is thereby generated. The coabsorbed useful gases are driven out by the stripping vapor. The useful gases are drawn off at the head of the high-pressure stripping column (43). The absorption agent present in the head vapors of the high-pressure stripping column (43) is liquefied and fed back into the high-pressure stripping column (43). The flow of absorption agent (7) departing the base of the high-pressure stripping column (43) is fed into a high-pressure regeneration column (47), in which the sour gases present in the absorption agent are separated out and drawn off from the head of the high-pressure regeneration column (47) at high pressure. The regenerated absorption agent (10) is drawn off at the base of the high-pressure regeneration column (47) and fed back into the absorption column (40).

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method and a device for thermally cracking halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons, especially for thermally cracking 1,2-dichloroethane to give vinyl chloride, in a manner that is gentle to the product, using chemical cracking promoters and/or physical measures initiating the cracking reaction. The temperature level in the reaction mixture and the temperature of the cracked gas leaving the cracking furnace is reduced by initiating the cracking reaction while the conversion percentage remains the same. The quantity and the outlet temperature of the flue gas from the convection zone of the cracking furnace is likewise reduced. In order to be able to put the operation that is gentle to the product into practice in the radiation section of the cracking furnace while at the same time maintaining the functioning of the convection zone, the heat supply to the cracking furnace is distributed in such a manner that a part of the heat obtained by bottom firing is supplied by means of burners in the radiation section and the other part of the heat obtained by bottom-firing is supplied by means of burners that are arranged at the outlet of the flue gas from the radiation section. The partial decoupling of the heat supply of the radiation section and the convection zone allows an operation that is especially gentle to the product.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method and a device for producing ethylenically unsaturated halogenated hydrocarbons, especially of vinyl chloride, by thermally cracking 1,2-dichloroethane, using physical or chemical measures initiating the cracking reaction. The method and the device according to the invention allow the output obtainable using the cracking reactors of a defined size to be considerably increased. According to the method, initiating measures are used to increase the flux density through the wall of the reactor tube and at the same to increase the reactant feed rate and the heating capacity of the reaction furnace to such an extent that the conversion percentage of the reaction is not considerably increased as compared to methods not using initiating measures. In order to be able to operate the method in an economical manner even when the reaction temperature is reduced, the process parameters have to be adjusted such that the evaporation of the quantity of feedstock used is brought about to at least 50% by means of the perceptible heat content of the reaction mixture leaving the reaction zone.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a device for drying a gas, wherein the drying of the gas is carried out by consecutively releasing and condensing the moisture in different chambers (2, 3, 4) of a column (1), such that different pressures and different temperatures are present in chambers of the column. The gas to be dried is first introduced (5, 5a) into the bottom chamber (2), where the largest amount of the water contained in the gas is condensed. The gas is then conducted from (7) the bottom chamber through a connector (7a). It is then cooled and fed into at least one further chamber (3, 4) arranged above, where additional moisture is condensed. The resulting condensate is then conducted via a tube (9, 12), which is preferably designed as siphon, into the lower reservoir (2a), such that no gas flow from the chamber beneath into the chamber above can take place. The invention further relates to a method with which the drying of a gas can be carried out.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a device for feeding and controlling secondary air from secondary air channels into flue gas channels of horizontal coking chamber ovens. The flue gas channels are thereby located under the coking chamber floor on which coking takes place. The flue gas channels serve for combusting partially combusted coking gases from the coking chamber. The partially combusted coking gases are combusted using secondary air, whereby the coke cake is also heated from below for uniform coking. The secondary air comes from the secondary air channels connected to outside air and to the flue gas channels. Control elements are installed in the connection channels between the flue gas channels and the secondary air channels and can precisely control the air flow in the flue gas channels. Significantly more uniform heating and heat distribution can thus be achieved in coking chamber furnaces. The actual control devices in the connecting channels can be formed by rotatable tube segments, bricks, or metal dampers. A stool-like device can also be used particularly advantageously, said device sitting in the secondary channels and having a hump plate having a central opening slid under the corresponding branch for controlling the gas flow. The control mechanism can be manually, electrically, or pneumatically actuated. The control device can thereby also be automated.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a heat-resistant door device for closing a horizontal coke chamber oven, said device being made of fire-proof material, wherein particularly a silica-containing material or a silica and aluminum oxide-containing material is used. The material has a low temperature expansion coefficient and has good heat insulating properties such that the door does not warp and does not become deformed during the coking process. The door device is configured by a door-surrounding coke oven wall located substantially above the door and a moveable door located beneath. Thus less cold ambient air enters the coke oven chamber during the coke discharge and the radiation loss is minimized. The door may comprise an ellipsoid convexity, with which the coal can be discharged more easily into the coking chamber. The oven wall surrounding the oven chamber may also be made of a fire-proof silica-containing or a fire-proof silica and aluminum oxide-containing material.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method and a device for conducting the method for desulfurizing an ingredient gas containing olefin and hydrogen. Said gas may be mixed with additional hydrogen and is divided into at least two supply flows. The first supply flow is conducted separately into the reactor and arrives on a first catalyst bed comprising the catalyst pellets on a suitable retaining device or a grating. There, the supply stream is heated by the hydration reaction. After the first catalyst bed, additional ingredient gas is added, whereby the reaction gas is cooled and may therefore be conducted through a second catalyst bed. Additional catalyst beds and additional ingredient gas supply units may be provided after the second catalyst bed. The catalyst beds may be placed in the reactor in any desired number, type, and shape. By conducting the reaction in this manner, a product gas is obtained that substantially contains hydrosulfides only as a sulfur compound.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a method and a device for the production and purification of a crude gas for synthesis gas production from a solid fuel containing carbon by a carbon gasification reaction, wherein the fuel is mixed with a quenching medium (7) directly after production in order to remove the high interior energy, and then, either still in the mixing chamber (6) or downstream of the mixing chamber, said fuel is brought into contact with an adsorption agent (8) comprising a solid basic alkaline earth metal compound or a compound containing transitional metals, such that the acidic or basic or sulfurous or halogenated components in the crude gas and arising from the gasification reaction are absorbed. A device (10) that precipitates solid material is located downstream of the supply device for the adsorption agent, by means of which the solid or solidified components are discharged from the system and the basic adsorption agent containing transitional metals may be regenerated and returned to the process. Thus, an energy-intensive cooling of the crude gas in order to purify said crude gas may be omitted, and the synthesis gas thus purified may be used in a subsequent process without additional heating.
