The invention relates to a temperature-controlled gas-liquid horizontal reactor with a special
distributor. The reactor comprises a shell body and a catalyst
bed layer arranged inside the shell body, wherein the shell body is provided with a material inlet and a product outlet, a modular core
assembly for heat exchange penetrates through the inside of the catalyst
bed layer and consists of a plurality of plates which are arranged in parallel, and a gas
distributor is arranged at the material inlet of the reactor. According to the reactor, heat exchange core
assembly units penetrate through the catalyst
bed layer, and the form of the modular core
assembly is specifically arranged as required; cores are parallel and are adjustable in spacing, so that a
reaction temperature can be accurately controlled, and the gas distribution is good; fluid is short in flow path, large in cross section and low in flow velocity,
gas pressure drop is positively correlated to distance and flow velocity, the pressure drop is reduced, and the
system energy consumption is lowered, so that the reactor is particularly applicable to working conditions of low operating pressure; and the horizontal reactor can realize a treatment scale, which is 3 to 5 times that of a common axial reactor, is large in treatment capacity and meets the requirements of large-scale production.
