    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and to a method for detecting at least the presence of gas hydrate crystals (10) formed by a fluid.
    The device according to the invention comprises: a polychromatic light source (2) likely to emit a radiation (20) at least in the visible spectrum; a body (3, 3′, 3″) comprising a reflecting surface (4) of predefined color in contact with the fluid; means for measuring a light intensity (5) as a function of wavelength, so arranged as to detect a radiation re-emitted in a non-specular manner (21) by reflecting surface (4) when it is illuminated by polychromatic light source (2); means for detecting at least the presence of hydrate crystals (10) from the light intensity measured as a function of wavelength and of at least one predefined threshold.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the dehydrogenation of a feedstock comprising ethanol, using at least one multitubular reactor advantageously comprising a plurality of tubes comprising at least one dehydrogenation catalyst, and a calender, said feedstock being introduced into the tubes in gas form, at an inlet temperature of greater than or equal to 240° C., a pressure between 0.1 and 1.0 MPa, and a WWH between 2 and 15 h−1, wherein a heat-transfer fluid circulates in said calender at a flow rate such that the weight ratio of said heat-transfer fluid relative to said feedstock is greater than or equal to 1.0, and such that said heat-transfer fluid is introduced into said calender in gas form at an inlet temperature of greater than or equal to 260° C. and at an inlet pressure of greater than or equal to 0.10 MPa, and less than or equal to 1.10 MPa, and leaves the calender at least partly in liquid form.
