Inventor: HASSELMANN WOLFGANG
IPC: F27B9/02
Filed: 2008-11-24
Abstract: Tunnel kilns serve for the thermal treatment of products in a continuous operation within a production process. The tunnel kilns are usually made up of a number of identical kiln segments, each segment having a blower, heating elements for heating up the fresh air and a common exhaust air line. For the treatment of the products, they are made to pass by either on the suction side or the pressure side of the blower.  To reduce the overall volume of such kilns and to save energy, it is proposed to arrange the blower inside the kiln in such a way that it produces a circulatory flow transversely to the direction of continuous transport and to transport the products to be dried through the circulatory flow parallel to one another in the direction of continuous transport both on the pressure side and on the suction side of the blower. These kilns are preferably used in the production of catalytic converters for automotive exhaust for which a catalyst layer applied to monolithic honeycomb bodies has to be dried and calcined.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un réacteur catalytique de conception améliorée pour la production de méthanol en conditions d'équilibre, grâce auquel le méthanol qui est formé est séparé de la phase gazeuse dans la phase liquide à l'intérieur du réacteur, sans réduire l'activité catalytique des catalyseurs de production de méthanol. Ce résultat est obtenu par ajustement du point d'ébullition d'un agent de refroidissement liquide qui est en contact indirect avec les particules de catalyseur et en établissant un rapport spécifique du volume de lit de catalyseur à la surface spécifique de refroidissement. Ainsi, la condensation du méthanol formé dans la phase gazeuse se produit sur la surface de refroidissement avec une distribution uniforme à l'intérieur du réacteur et dans une région très limitée du lit de catalyseur.

Title: Method and apparatus for the recovery of molybdenum from spent catalysts
Inventor: HNAT JAMES G
IPC: B01D11/00
Filed: 2009-08-19
Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus and process that utilizes high-temperature oxidation and subli-mation for recovery of molybdenum from spent catalysts or other feedstocks that contain molybdenum. One embod-iment uses a counter-rotating vortex reactor and a cyclonic entrained-flow reactor to rapidly heat and oxidize the spent catalyst feedstock, such as carbon, sulfur, and molybde-num compounds, at temperatures in the range of about 2100°F to 2900°F, resulting in a gas-solid stream contain-ing molybdenum trioxide vapor. A high-temperature cy-clone separator is utilized to separate the residue from this stream before this stream is rapidly quenched to a tempera-ture sufficient to effect condensation of solid molybdenum trioxide without condensing arsenic or phosphoric oxides.  The condensed molybdenum trioxide material is separated from this stream by passing through a high-temperature fil-tration system. The remaining gaseous stream is ducted to operations for possible further material reclamation and entailed pollution control prior to discharge to the atmo-sphere.
