DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The utility model embodiment provides a double tower reactor for hydrogen production process, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, two reaction towers 101 are included. The reaction towers 101 on both sides are symmetrically arranged. Two supporting bottom plates 103 are fixedly arranged at the bottom of the reaction tower 101. The supporting bottom plates 103 on both sides are symmetrically arranged. The supporting bottom plates 103 on both sides have the effect of stable support. A material interface 106 is fixedly arranged at the top of the reaction tower 101. A barometer 105 is fixedly arranged at the top of the reaction tower 101 and located on one side of the material interface 106.

[0024] It should be further explained that the barometer 105 is a barometer in the prior art, which is used to detect the air pressure value in the reaction tower 101.

[0025] Furthermore, the top and side of the material interface 106 are respectively connected to material input pipelines 109, and the material input pipelines 109 on both sides are inlets for different hydrogen production raw materials.

[0026] Furthermore, two heat pipe interfaces 102 are provided on the outer walls of the reaction towers 101 on both sides, and the positions of the heat pipe interfaces 102 on both sides are symmetrical up and down.

[0027] It should be further explained that a shell side module is provided in the shell of the reaction tower 101, the shell side module inlet is connected to the lower heat pipe interface 102, and the shell side module outlet is connected to the upper heat pipe interface 102.

[0028] Furthermore, a reaction chamber 111 is provided in the reaction tower 101 , and a plurality of reaction tubes 112 are vertically installed in the reaction chamber 111 , and the reaction tubes 112 are arranged in a matrix.

[0029] Furthermore, an output nozzle 110 is connected to the lower wall of the reaction chamber 111 , and an output pipe 113 is connected to the bottom and the side of the output nozzle 110 .

[0030] Furthermore, a support plate 108 is horizontally arranged between the tops of the reaction towers 101 on both sides, and an adjustment control tube 104 is vertically installed in the support plate 108 . The upper and lower end surfaces of the adjustment control tube 104 are respectively connected with diversion interfaces 107 .

[0031] Furthermore, both sides of the top flow diversion interface 107 are connected to the material input pipeline 109 on one side, and both sides of the bottom flow diversion interface 107 are connected to the output pipeline 113 on one side.

[0032] It should be further explained that the connecting pipes on each side are controlled by control valves.

[0033] When using this solution, first move the reaction towers 101 on both sides to a reasonable working position, and use the supporting base plate 103 at the bottom to provide a stable support effect. At this time, connect the two sides of the top diversion interface 107 with the material input pipeline 109 on one side, and connect the two sides of the bottom diversion interface 107 with the output pipeline 113 on one side. At this time, connect the heat pipe interface 102 on one side of the reaction towers 101 on both sides to the workshop heat transfer oil pipe. The lower heat pipe interface 102 is the heat transfer oil pipe input port, and the upper heat pipe interface 102 is the heat transfer oil pipe output port.

[0034] Subsequently, the top of the material input pipeline 109 is connected to the material input pipeline, and the material is input into the reaction tube 112 in the reaction chamber 111. At the same time, the heat transfer oil enters 101 through the heat pipe interface 102, and after passing through the shell side in 101, heat exchange is performed and output to the outside. After the reaction, the produced hydrogen is discharged to the outside through the output pipe port 110.

[0035] At this time, when the efficiency of the hydrogen production reaction is low, the control valve in the control tube 104 is switched, and the material gas output through the output pipe port 110 at the bottom is refluxed to the material interface 106 at the top of the reaction tower 101 on one side through the diversion interface 107, and continues to be input into the reaction chamber 111 for secondary reaction, and then the reaction towers 101 on both sides are connected in series to complete the series tower reaction, thereby improving the quality of the output hydrogen and meeting the requirements of the production process.

[0036] After a period of reaction, when it is detected that the reaction efficiency is high, the control valve in the control tube 104 is adjusted to switch. At this time, the reaction towers 101 on both sides form a parallel mode and carry out hydrogen production reaction at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency of the hydrogen production process in the reaction tower.

[0037] At the same time, by switching control of the adjustment control tube 104, the series-parallel relationship between the reaction towers 101 on both sides can be better completed, the process production of the hydrogen production reaction can be completed more reasonably and intelligently, and the support and control stability of the adjustment control tube 104 can be improved through the support plate 108. After use, the adjustment control tube 104 can be directly disassembled. At this time, the reaction towers 101 on both sides can also be directly disassembled and used independently, and assembly and disassembly are very convenient.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
