Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of catalysts, in particular to a solid catalyst feeding device. Background Art
[0002] Raney nickel, also known as Lany nickel, is a solid-state catalyst composed of fine grains of a nickel-aluminum alloy with a porous structure. Its preparation involves treating the nickel-aluminum alloy with a concentrated sodium hydroxide solution. During this process, most of the aluminum reacts with the sodium hydroxide and dissolves, leaving behind numerous micropores of varying sizes. While the Raney nickel appears as a fine gray powder, from a microscopic perspective, each tiny particle within the powder is a three-dimensional porous structure. This porous structure significantly increases its surface area. This large surface area results in high catalytic activity, making Raney nickel widely used as a heterogeneous catalyst in hydrogenation reactions in organic synthesis and industrial production.
[0003] However, exposure to air can easily cause combustion and lead to safety accidents. Therefore, safety precautions must be taken during use. During the feeding process, it is necessary to ensure that the catalyst is added to the reaction solution. During the post-use filtration and recovery process, it is necessary to ensure safe filtration to prevent it from being drained out and exposed to air, which could cause fire accidents. Currently, in the industry, Raney nickel is usually fed directly by manual feeding or vacuum extraction, which can easily cause Raney nickel to spill and spontaneously combust, affecting production safety.
[0004] Some current technologies involve introducing nitrogen and Raney nickel from a feed tank into a reactor through a feed pipe. However, when nitrogen enters the reactor along with the Raney nickel, the Raney nickel cannot come into contact with the liquid material in the reactor in a timely manner. If air remains in the reactor, the use of the Raney nickel will be affected, and there may still be a risk of accidents. Utility Model Content

At the same time, a second stirring paddle 110 is provided in the hydrogenation reactor 100, and the mixed materials in the reactor 100 can be evenly mixed. Wherein, the first stirring paddle 330 is any one of anchor type, paddle type or spiral type, and can be selected according to actual needs, and the catalyst feeding bin 300 is 316L stainless steel or titanium.
