Abstract:
Described is a method of charging a sorption store with a gas. The sorption store comprises a closed container and a feed device which has a passage through the container wall, through which the gas can flow into the container, and the container has at least two parallel, channel-shaped subchambers which are located in its interior and are each at least partly filled with an adsorption medium and whose channel walls are coolable. The method comprises, in a first step, feeding in a gas in such an amount that a pressure in the store of at least 30% of a predetermined final pressure is reached as quickly as possible and, in a second step, subsequently varying the amount of gas fed in in such a way that the course of the pressure in the store approximates the adsorption kinetics of the adsorption medium until the predetermined final pressure in the store is reached after a predetermined period of time.
Abstract:
Describes is a sorption store for storing gaseous substances. The sorption store for storing gaseous substances comprises a closed tank and a feeding device, which comprises a passage through the tank wall, through which a gas can flow into the tank. The tank has inside it at least one separating element, which is configured in such a way that the interior of the tank is divided into at least one pair of channels comprising two parallel running channel-shaped compartments, the ends of which are in connection with one another in each case by way of a common space, each channel-shaped compartment being filled at least partially with an adsorption medium. The feeding device is designed in such a way that inflowing gas is diverted almost exclusively into one of the two compartments of each pair of channels.
Abstract:
What is proposed is a column (K) comprising separatory internals (E) for separating a mixture of hydrocarbons and/or hydrocarbon derivatives (1) by extractive distillation with a selective solvent (2),with supply of the selective solvent (2) in the upper region of the column and supply of the mixture of hydrocarbons and/or hydrocarbon derivatives to be separated (1) below the supply of the selective solvent (2), the selective solvent (2) becoming laden in the column (K) with the components from the mixture to be separated (1) for which it has greater affinity and being withdrawn from the lower region of the column as laden selective solvent (3), while, by contrast, the components from the mixture to be separated for which the selective solvent (2) has a lower affinity remain in the vapor phase and are withdrawn as top stream (4), which is completely or partially condensed to obtain a condensate (5), some of which is withdrawn as product stream (6), the remainder being reintroduced to the column (K) as reflux (7), wherein said column comprises in the region of the column above the separatory internals (E) a first, substantially horizontal feed pipe (R1) for supplying the selective solvent, wherein the first, substantially horizontal feed pipe (R1) exhibits a cross-sectional narrowing to a narrowest point (V), said pipe widening again downstream of the cross-sectional narrowing, and wherein said column comprises a second feed pipe (R2) for supplying the reflux (7), said pipe joining the first, substantially horizontal feed pipe (R1) in the region of the narrowest point (V) of the cross-sectional narrowing.

An apparatus (10) for preparation of acetylene and synthesis gas by partial oxidation of hydrocarbons with oxygen is proposed, comprising a reactor (12). The reactor (12) has a burner block (14) with a firing space for acetylene preparation, a secondary space (18) formed within the burner block (14), and an annular space (20) surrounding the secondary space (18). The burner block (14) has holes (22) for supply of a stream of a mixture of hydrocarbons and oxygen to the firing space and holes (24) for supply of a stream of auxiliary oxygen to the firing space. The holes (24) for supply of a stream of auxiliary oxygen to the firing space are connected to the secondary space (18). The secondary space (18) is connected to the annular space (20).There is a further proposal of a process for preparing acetylene and synthesis gas by partial oxidation of hydrocarbons with oxygen.

Described is a method of charging a sorption store with a gas. The sorption store comprises a closed container which is at least partly filled with an adsorption medium and has an inlet and an outlet which can each be closed by a shut-off element. The method comprises the steps: (a) closing of the outlet shut-off element and opening of the inlet shut-off element, (b) introduction of gas to be stored under a predetermined pressure through the inlet, (c) rapid opening of the outlet shut-off element with the inlet shut-off element open so that a gas flow having a predetermined flow rate is established in the container, (d) reduction of the flow rate as a function of the adsorption rate of the gas adsorbed in the store, and (e) complete closing of the outlet shut-off element.
