摘要:
A vaporizer includes means 11 which may be an electronically controlled solenoid valve to divert repeatedly a carrier gas into either a first path which goes directly from the inlet 3 to the outlet 5 of the vaporizer or a second path which enters a vaporizing chamber 13 to entrain volatile liquid vapor before re-joining the first path.
摘要:
A combination coal liquefaction-gasification-naphtha reforming process wherein the slurry containing substantially the entire yield of normally solid dissolved coal produced in the liquefaction zone comprises substantially the only hydrocarbonaceous feed for the gasification zone and wherein a portion of the naphtha produced in the liquefaction zone is passed through the reforming zone for conversion to gasoline with the remainder of the naphtha being burned as fuel within the process. The amount of hydrocarbonaceous material charged to the gasification zone is established so that the thermal efficiency of the process is substantially unaffected by changes in the ratio of naphtha passed through the reforming zone to naphtha burned as process fuel. The thermal efficiency of the process is maintained at a high level regardless of minor variations in normally solid dissolved coal yield by changing the ratio of naphtha passed through the reforming zone to naphtha burned as process fuel.
摘要:
A process for the production of methane from a reactant gas comprising H.sub.2 and CO employing at least two primary, fixed bed, adiabatic, catalytic reactors in serial arrangement wherein a first feed stream comprised of steam and said reactant gas is reacted in the first of said reactors from a temperature of about 550.degree. F to about 1200.degree. F and wherein a second feed stream comprised of said reactant gas and the effluent gas from said first reactor is reacted in each primary reactor subsequent to the first one from a temperature of about 900.degree. F up to a maximum of about 1600.degree. F.
摘要:
A clean, cool stream of low BTU gas is heated and saturated with water vapor by means of a hot liquid stream containing water. Contamination of the gas stream by droplets, particulate matter and salt content of the liquid stream is obviated by maintaining separation between the gas and liquid phases by means of a microporous barrier. The barrier is made of a material selected from the group consisting of hydrophobic polymer material and hydrophilic polymer material having a gel structure.
摘要:
An improved process and apparatus for upgrading coal gas to methane is provided by a simple and efficient methanator comprising an open-ended enclosure submersed within a liquid bath and carrying a catalytic insert having increasing degrees of controlled reactivity which the said gas contacts as the gas travels through the enclosure. In the presence of the catalyst, heat is generated from the methanation reaction at a controlled rate and substantially dissipated by the liquid bath so that substantially all the gaseous reductants, CO and H.sub.2, are reacted to methane at a relatively low controlled temperature.
摘要:
A process for converting cellulose to a normally liquid oil which includes contacting cellulose with water, a reducing gas and an ammonia-producing compound at particular conditions of temperature and pressure to insure a liquid water phase at conversion conditions employed. The reducing gas may be carbon monoxide, hydrogen, or a mixture thereof.
