Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a device for solving the catalyst leakage of a cylindrical tube reactor, belonging to the field of chemical production equipment. Background Art
[0002] The cylindrical shell-and-tube reactor is widely used in chemical production equipment. For example, the reactors of the reaction units in cracking units and dehydrogenation units mostly adopt this structure. The shell side of this structure is generally heated by heat transfer oil, while the tube side is filled with catalyst. The catalyst is evenly added to the shell and tube, and the catalyst is intercepted by wire mesh at the bottom of the shell and tube. The wire mesh is fixed by bolts. For reactors with smaller diameters, the wire mesh will not have any problems with bearing weight, but for reactors with larger diameters, the wire mesh is particularly prone to deformation, and it is very easy for the wire mesh to fall off or have holes, which will lead to catalyst leakage.
