Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chemical equipment technology, specifically to an aniline acetonitrile continuous reactor. Background Technology

[0002] The aniline-acetonitrile continuous reactor is a chemical equipment used for the efficient synthesis of aniline-acetonitrile. It employs continuous flow reaction technology to replace traditional batch production, enabling continuous feeding, reaction, and product collection of raw materials such as aniline and cyanoacetic acid. The reactor's internal design emphasizes precise control of temperature, pressure, and residence time, often utilizing tubular or microchannel structures to enhance mass and heat transfer efficiency. Compared to batch processes, continuous reactors offer advantages such as high production efficiency, stable product quality, low energy consumption, and good safety. To ensure temperature control, traditional continuous reactors typically install heat exchange tubes directly outside the reaction tubes, along with matching heat source delivery pipelines, resulting in a complex overall reactor structure and occupying a significant amount of production space.

A first support column and a second support column are respectively provided on the rear sides of the reaction tubes. Support frames are provided at positions corresponding to the reaction tubes on both the first and second support columns. The heat exchange tubes abut against the support frames. Heat exchange chambers are provided inside both the first and second support columns. Heat exchange connecting pipes are provided on the side walls of the first and second support columns and between the support frames, and are connected to the heat exchange tubes.

[0005] Preferably, both ends of the reaction tube and both ends of the connecting bend are provided with connecting flanges.

[0008] Preferably, both the first support column and the second support column are closed structures, and the lower ends of both the first support column and the second support column are provided with fixed bases.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: based on the traditional continuous reactor, it retains the design of directly setting the heat exchange tube on the outside of the reaction tube, and integrates the support structure of the reaction tube with the heat exchange tube and the matching heat source delivery pipeline. The support structure provides support function while providing heat exchange source delivery function, simplifying the overall structure of the reactor and reducing the production space occupied by the reaction equipment.
