Reactor for performing continuous multiphase catalytic reaction and separation

Abstract

The invention discloses a reactor for performing continuous multiphase catalytic reaction and separation. The reactor comprises a reactor shell, a nozzle and a filtering-type guiding device, wherein the nozzle is connected with a liquid reactant and a gas reactant; the reactor is characterized in that the filtering-type guiding device is arranged in the reactor shell and is immersed in a serous fluid of the reactor, the filtering-type guiding device is composed of inner and outer concentric cylinders, at least one of the cylinders is a filtering-type cylinder, the upper and lower ends of the two cylinders are connected and sealed, and an annular space arranged between the inner and outer concentric cylinders is a liquid filtering region; the filtering-type guiding device is provided with an exhaust hole and a liquid filtering discharging hole, and the nozzle is aligned to the interior of the filtering-type guiding device and can form a serous fluid ring current which can fold back from the interiors of the cylinders of the filtering-type guiding device to the bottoms of the cylinders and can pass through a space arranged between the filtering-type guiding device and the reactor shell to arrive the top of the filtering-type guiding device; the region of the serous fluid ring current is a reacting region, a liquid enters the liquid filtering region from the reacting region, and a filter cake is formed on the surface of a filtering cylinder of the filtering-type guiding device.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to reactors suitable for continuous heterogeneous catalytic reactions and separations using solid catalysts in the gas-liquid phase or liquid-liquid phase. Background of the invention [0002] The jet loop reactor is a high-efficiency gas-liquid, gas-liquid-solid, liquid-liquid-solid multiphase reactor. Its structure is simple, and the circulation is formed by the injection effect of the fluid and the static pressure difference, so that the various phases are fully mixed, the mass transfer and heat transfer effects are good, and the energy consumption is low. These excellent properties make the jet loop reactor occupy an increasingly important position in the fields of biochemistry, chemical industry, sewage treatment, and coal liquefaction and hydrogenation. This traditional jet loop reactor requires liquid-solid separation outside the reactor. For liquid-solid separation outside the reactor, the slurry needs to be t...
