Abstract:
In the method for the chemical reaction of gaseous educts, the educts are brought to reaction in a phase contact apparatus 1 in the presence of a catalytically active corrosive liquid. This corrosive liquid is delivered hydropneumatically in an intermittent cycle in the circuit from a sump vessel 4 connected to the lower end of the phase contact apparatus 1 to a supply vessel 9, connected to the upper end of the phase contact apparatus (delivery cycle), from which the corrosive liquid drains through the phase contact apparatus 1 and a connecting line 11 connected at its lower end and then collects in the sump vessel 4 (drainage cycle).

A method for making an aluminum nitride powder comprises atomizing a molten aluminum into a nitriding atmosphere of N.sub.2 gas of elevated temperature and solidifying the finely divided liquid particles of aluminum which have been nitrided.
Abstract:
A mono-stage device for generating gaseous sulphuric anhydride from melted sulphur, of the kind having two chambers, one inside the other and preferably concentric. The internal chamber contains spherical refractory material and has a duct feeding hot air into the bottom of the chamber. It opens at its upper end into the external chamber. Molten sulphur is fed into the upper end of the inner chamber and is burned to form SO.sub.2 which flows down in the external chamber containing catalytic material to form SO.sub.3 which is extracted through an outlet near the bottom of the external chamber.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for the production of industrial lead oxide involving mixing molten lead and air in a reactor. A particularly advantageous, having a desired particle size can be obtained with a PbO content of considerably more than 99%. The lead flow is introduced at a constant and even rate and the air flow is altered very slightly in order to maintain the pre-determined reaction temperature having fluctuations of a maximum of .+-.5.degree. C.The constant and steady infeed of the lead flow is achieved by using an apparatus according to the invention. The apparatus, which is situated above the reactor, includes a supply vessel charged with molten lead from a melt container, the supply vessel having an exchangeable nozzle which is provided with a control-operated cleaning pin. The nozzle extends into a reaction space and the supply vessel is connected to the melt container via a feed line and an overflow. The nozzle can also be of a known spray nozzle type which is fed with heated compressed air via a line running through the said melt container.
Abstract:
A process and apparatus for condensing solid materials such as phosphates which tend to sinter and adhere when heated in a reactor wherein the reactants are introduced into a trough-like reactor provided with at least one set of rotatable agitating paddles. Heat is supplied to the reactor by passing a heating medium, such as a molten salt or a molten metal, through one or more heating jackets on the exterior of the reactor housing. The agitating paddles press the solid material in a thin layer against the wall of the reactor housing, and the material in the layer absorbs heat from the heating medium and sinters to a hard layer. One paddle of each set of paddles is provided with a stripping knife which moves along a path closely adjacent to the exterior wall of the reaction chamber to strip sintered material from the wall of the reactor housing. Heat is also transferred to the interior of the reactor housing by circulating the peeled material through the interior region of the reactor housing.
Abstract:
Aqueous ammonium phosphate solutions can be produced using an apparatus comprising: a fluid reactor having a plurality of inlets at one end thereof suitable for the admission of phosphoric acid, ammonia and water, the inlets being so positioned as to provide for rapid ammoniation of the phosphoric acid with the evolution of heat, to produce a reaction product mixture containing a liquid portion and steam, the fluid reactor having an exit for the expulsion of the reaction products mixture at the other end thereof, by steam generated by the heat liberated in the ammoniation process; a columnar vessel having an outlet at one end and, at the other end, enclosing the exit of the fluid reactor, a plurality of barriers obturating the columnar vessel in a spaced-apart relationship, and having a plurality of apertures therein for the passage of reaction products mixture therethrough; an inlet quench device connected to the columnar vessel for introduction therein of a liquid aqueous quenching fluid; and, a device in communication with the exit of the fluid reactor, for separating steam from the liquid portion of the reaction mixture and removing the separated steam from the apparatus.

Abstract:
Waste waters from salt bath hardening and galvanizing operations are removed through evaporation of the injurious material containing waste water and complete detoxification of the concentrate from the evaporation. The waste waters are first brought to a salt content of 300-500 grams/liter and this concentrated solution is then supplied to a molten salt bath.
Abstract:
Oxidized molten chloride salts are employed for chlorinating and/or oxychlorinating a feed in a first reactor and then passed by gravity to a second reactor situated below the first reactor and operated at a pressure higher than the first reactor wherein the molten salt is oxidized. The oxidized salt is returned to the first reactor. Vinyl chloride or chloromethanes can be produced by the process.
