Abstract: Embodiments of a degassing system of the present invention generally include a degassing device having a sintered metal matrix component; and a process vessel having a liquid inlet and liquid outlet through which liquid flows providing a liquid level there within; wherein the degassing device, which is fluidly connected to a pressurized gas source, is disposed within the process vessel beneath the surface of the liquid, wherein pressurized gas is introduced to the degassing device and forced through the sintered metal matrix to create gas micro-bubbles which rise through the liquid to strip volatile compounds therefrom, the gaseous composition above the surface of the liquid being evacuated through the gas outlet. In one embodiment, a degassing tower having multiple degassing chambers and degassing devices is employed. In one embodiment, a metal powder is disposed within the sintered metal matrix. Embodiments of methods of using the degassing device are also provided.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention generally include a pressure relief system and methods of use, in which an apparatus includes an upper chamber fluidly connected to a pressurized fluid source, a lower chamber having an inlet and an outlet, a vertically moveable plate intermediate the chambers and disposed within a plate support, and connected to the plate by a vertical shaft, a vertically actuating lower chamber inlet valve including an inlet seal. Pressure relief is accomplished by controlling fluid pressure in the upper chamber such that varying downward force on the plate and therefore, via the shaft, the inlet seal, allows for selective opening/closing of the inlet valve as a function of upper chamber fluid pressure relative to the pressure exerted from a fluid source for which pressure relief is desired, beneath the inlet seal, whereby over-pressured fluid entering the lower chamber via the inlet is vented out the outlet.

Abstract: A cooling and heat recovery system for chemical processing vessels. An inner vessel is located within an outer vessel, defining a gap between the two vessels. A heat removal agent is pumped in and out of the gap thereby cooling the wall of the inner vessel which is exposed to exceedingly high temperatures within its interior. Baffling is provided within the gap to ensure the uniform and continuous flow of heat removal agent within the gap. The design of the system increases the rate and efficiency at which heat is transferred from the inner vessel wall to the heat removal agent. In one embodiment, at least one helical bar attached to the inner vessel wall enhances the heat transfer rate and efficiency. Each helical bar generates turbulent flow of the heat removal agent, which in turn enhances the heat transfer between the inner vessel wall and the heat removal agent. This cooling and heat recovery system may be used as a part of a larger heat recovery cycle in a system that uses a heat utilization stage, a cooling stage, and a surge tank.
Abstract translation: 化学处理容器的冷却和热回收系统。 内部容器位于外部容器内，限定两个容器之间的间隙。 将排出剂泵送进出间隙，从而冷却在其内部暴露于非常高的温度的内部容器的壁。 在间隙内提供挡板以确保间隙内均匀且连续的散热剂流动。 该系统的设计增加了从内部血管壁向散热剂转移热量的速率和效率。 在一个实施例中，连接到内部血管壁的至少一个螺旋杆增强了传热速率和效率。 每个螺旋杆产生除热剂的湍流，这反过来增强了内容器壁和除热剂之间的热传递。 该冷却和热回收系统可以用作使用热利用级，冷却级和缓冲罐的系统中较大热回收循环的一部分。
