Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a tubular reactor, in particular to a continuous flow micro-capacity dynamic tubular reactor. Background Art

[0002] Traditional tank reactors occupy a large floor space, have a small heat exchange area, are difficult to control reaction temperatures, and suffer from inconsistent material residence times. They are mostly used for reactions involving liquid phases, such as liquid-liquid, liquid-solid, gas-liquid, and gas-liquid-solid reactions. Mechanical seals are often used, which can easily cause leaks. Traditional tank reactors often cause uneven or incomplete reactions when reacting materials. Furthermore, highly exothermic reactions such as nitration and sulfonation can easily lead to heat accumulation, creating a dangerous situation. Utility Model Content

[0005] A continuous flow micro-capacity dynamic tubular reactor comprising:

[0006] A tube body having an inner cavity including a heat exchange channel and a reaction channel, wherein the reaction channel is located inside the heat exchange channel;

[0007] A stirring assembly is placed in the reaction channel; the stirring assembly includes a drive motor, a stirring shaft, and blades; the centerline of the stirring shaft is collinear with the centerline of the reaction channel, and a plurality of blades are axially arranged on the stirring shaft, with the distance between adjacent blades increasing from small to large; the stirring shaft is connected to the drive end of the drive motor;

[0008] The heat exchange component includes fins and heat exchange tubes. The heat exchange tubes are sleeved on the outside of the stirring shaft. A plurality of fins are arranged on the heat exchange tubes along the axial direction. The fins are evenly distributed on the heat exchange tubes.

[0009] Furthermore, the heat exchange channel is the interval between the outer wall of the heat exchange tube and the inner wall of the tube body, and the reaction channel is the internal interval of the heat exchange tube.

[0010] Furthermore, fixing parts are respectively provided on both sides of the tube body, the middle part of the fixing part is connected to the stirring shaft through a bearing, and the outer side of the fixing part is connected to the stirring shaft through an outer spacer.

[0011] Furthermore, a sealing member is provided on the fixing member, and the sealing member is made of polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0012] Furthermore, thermal resistors for monitoring the reaction temperature are respectively provided on both sides of the tube body, and sensing ends of the thermal resistors are inserted into the heat exchange channel for monitoring and adjusting the temperature.

[0013] Furthermore, the blades are distributed on the stirring shaft in a spiral shape.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0015] The utility model is provided with blades on the stirring shaft, and the distance between adjacent blades is increased from small to large. This will cause the rotation of the stirring shaft to drive the rotation of the reactants in the reaction channel to form turbulence, which can intensify the reaction and mixing of the materials, improve the heat exchange efficiency, and accurately control the temperature through the thermal resistor. Bearings are provided on both sides of the device, which can enable the device to operate more smoothly after being fixed. In terms of highly exothermic reactions such as nitration and sulfonation, the utility model can effectively avoid heat accumulation by enhancing the heat transfer performance of the blades, ensuring the safety of the reaction. The utility model saves space, reduces costs, and reduces leakage by adding shaft seals instead of mechanical seals. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The reaction channel 3 of this device has a small liquid holding capacity, so the reaction is uniform, and the temperature can also be accurately controlled. It is suitable for gas phase, liquid phase and solid phase reactions, and can also be used for low-cost laboratory research on continuous flow reactions.
