Patent NO-994941-D0 (NO)
Inventor: CZUPPON THOMAS A
IPC: C01C1/04
Filed: 1999-10-11
Abstract: A vertical tubular reactor for converting ammonia synthesis loop purge gas to ammonia; a method for converting ammonia synthesis loop purge gas to form additional ammonia; and a method for retrofitting a conventional ammonia plant having a synthesis loop using an iron-based synthesis catalyst and having a purge gas stream, the method including a supplemental ammonia converter for the purge gas stream. The supplemental ammonia converter is a shell and tube reactor. The tubes are filled with a catalyst comprising a platinum group metal such as ruthenium. The tubes are maintained in a substantially isothermal condition by boiling water in the shell side. As a retrofit modification to an existing ammonia synthesis plant, the purge stream is passed through the supplemental ammonia converter on a once-through basis to form additional ammonia and reduce the amount of purge gas. Advantages of the retrofit modification include lower energy consumption, lower purge rates and higher ammonia production rates. <IMAGE>

Date Aug. 18, 1994A dispersion of cellulose based fibers in straw is produced by the aid of alkali and strong mechanical agitation. This solubilizes the pentosane in the straw, and turns the mixture into a high viscosity paste, so that the forces from the agitation tear the individual straws apart and disperses the fibers. In this way the fibers can be dispersed at solid content up to 85% compared to only 8% by traditional methods. The treatment results in a molding paste, which can be used directly for plastic forming of cellulose based fiber products after neutralizing.
