Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing chlorine in a fluidized bed reactor, a gaseous reaction mixture containing hydrogen chloride and oxygen flowing from the bottom to the top of a heterogeneous particulate catalyst that forms a fluidized bed. The invention is characterized in that said fluidized bed comprises insertion elements which divide the fluidized bed into a plurality of horizontal and vertical cells arranged in the fluidized bed reactor, the walls of said cells being permeable to gas and having openings for ensuring the exchange of particles of the heterogeneous particulate catalyst in the vertical direction in the range of between 1 and 100 liter(s)/hour per liter of reactor volume.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a fluidized bed reactor for carrying out a gas phase reaction. A gaseous reaction mixture flows from the bottom to the top of a heterogeneous particulate catalyst that forms a fluidized bed in which baffles are arranged. Said fluidized bed reactor is characterized in that the baffles divide the fluidized bed into a plurality of cells horizontally disposed in the fluidized bed reactor and a plurality of cells vertically disposed in the fluidized bed reactor, the cell walls being gas-permeable and being provided with openings which ensure that the heterogeneous particulate catalyst reaches a transfer rate ranging from 1 to 100 liters/hour per liter of reactor volume in the vertical direction.
Abstract:
A process for preparing aromatic amines by catalytic hydrogenation of the corresponding nitro compound in a fluidized-bed reactor, in which a gaseous reaction mixture comprising the nitro compound and hydrogen flows from the bottom upward through a heterogeneous particulate catalyst forming a fluidized bed, wherein the fluidized bed is provided with internals which divide the fluidized bed into a plurality of cells arranged horizontally in the fluidized-bed reactor and a plurality of cells arranged vertically in the fluidized-bed reactor, with the cells having cell walls which are permeable to gas and have openings which ensure an exchange number of the heterogeneous, particulate catalyst in the vertical direction in the range from 1 to 100 liters/hour per liter of reactor volume, is proposed.
Abstract:
The object of the invention is a method for producing isocyanates by reacting amines with phosgene, characterized in that the amine, or a mixture of amine and a solvent in the form of an aerosol, is mixed with gaseous phosgene, and the amine is subsequently reacted with phosgene.
