Title: Improvements in and relating to method and apparatus for handling residues
IPC: C04B5/00
Filed: 1930-04-03
Abstract: 358,527. Granulating slag. ALLEN, F. B., 225, South 15th Street, Philadelphia, U.S.A. April 3, 1930, No. 10596. [Class 82 (ii).] In granulating incombustible furnace residues a freely-falling stream of the molten slag is dispersed by high-pressure fluid jets, the globules falling on to a fluid conveyer which carries the solidified particles against a breaking-plate for further disintegration. Molten slag 2a which accumulates in a furnace 1 is tapped periodically through a spout 3 and falls in a stream towards a fluid conveyer 4 formed in a semicircular trough by a high-pressure flow of liquid from a pipe or pipes 12 with nozzles 13. During the fall the stream of slag is acted on by jets of fluid, preferably water, under pressure issuing from a nozzle or nozzles 15 on a pipe 14. The jet of fluid is of a width equal to or greater than that of the stream of slag so that the stream is widened laterally and broken up into small globules and threads which fall on to the fluid conveyer 4 where they solidify. The fluid conveyer 4 carries the particles against a breaking-plate 5 from which the disintegrated slag falls on to a second fluid conveyer 6 preferably disposed at an angle to the conveyer 4 which conveys it to the place of disposal. In a modification, Fig. 4, two slag spouts 21, 21a on opposite sides of the furnace are provided, the slag falling from spout 21a being dispersed by jets from a nozzle 23 mounted above a fluid conveyer 24 which may be a continuation of the sluiceway 22 which is disposed under the spout 21. In the modification shown in Fig. 6 several slag spouts 31 are provided and the streams of slag are dispersed and deflected backwards by jets from nozzles 32, the slag falling into sluiceways 34 along which it is carried by water under pressure from nozzles 33 until it is finally disintegrated by breaking-plates 35 from which it falls into a main sluiceway 36.

Filed: 1941-08-20
Abstract: 577,179. Crystallizing ammonium nitrate. WILKINS, F. J., and IMPERIAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES, Ltd. Aug. 20, 1941, No. 10610. [Class 32] Ammonium nitrate is crystallized by producing a magma containing at least 30 per cent. of ammonium nitrate crystals, applying shear stress to the magma, preferably from the moment of formation, to make it sufficiently mobile to be conveyed as a liquid, and then conveying it by flow to the separation stage of the process. The magma may be obtained by evaporation or crystallization. Nitric acid of 50-60 per cent. strength is fed with ammonia gas and ammonium nitrate solution to a neutralizer, a solution containing 86 per cent. ammonium nitrate being obtained at 138‹C. The solution was fed to a vacuum evaporator where it was concentrated to 86 per cent. and then passed through a rotary crystallizer where the solution cooled to 60‹C. and was converted into a magma containing 40 per cent. solid nitrate. The rotary motion of the crystallizer maintained the magma sufficiently fluid for transfer to a centrifugal separator where the mother liquor was separated and returned to the neutralizer. Specification 577,180 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the separation of intermixed divided materials
IPC: B03B4/02
Filed: 1928-04-12
Abstract: 290,276. Peale, R., Davies, W. S., and Wallace, W. S., (Assignees of Davis, K.). May 12, 1927, [Convention date]. Pneumatic separating.-Relates to a process and apparatus such as described in Specification 287,184 for separating granular materials of different specific gravity, such as mixtures of coal and rock, in which the materials are stratified on an air pervious table by the action of an upward air pressure in combination with shaking movements of the table, and consists in arrangements which cause the lower stratum to be traversed transversely of the vibrating movement and against gravity to a series of regulable discharge openings. The apparatus described comprises a table 1, Fig. 1, of elongated shape and provided with separating partitions 37 which are inclined forwardly and outwardly from the centre line leaving lateral unobstructed channels 38, 39 along the sides in which the denser materials concentrate and from which they are discharged by passages 74, the lighter materials moving forward to the end of the table which is preferably of V-shape so as to provide an extended discharge edge 40, leading to a shoot 46. Adjustable guide plates 48, 49 are provided to regulate the discharge of middlings materials to shoots 50, 51. Preferably the separating partitions 37 increase in height, and the air perviosity of the table decreases towards the forward end in zones extending forwardly and outwardly from the centre. The surface of the table is concave and is formed in two parts supported at the outer edges by beams 17, 18, Fig. 5, and at the adjacent inner edges by a beam 22 the position of which is vertically adjustable to vary the lateral inclination. The longitudinal inclination is varied by mounting the table carrying frame 2. 3 adjustably on a second frame 132, Fig. 2, which is supported by links 137 on the base frame 143 and is reciprocated by the connecting rod and eccentric mechanism 166, 168. The discharge openings 71 in the sides 2, 3 are regulated in size by adjustable gates 72, and the ends of the discharge passages 74 are closed by weighted doors 79, Fig. 7. Discharge of the lighter materials with the heavier is prevented by producing a backward air pressure in the passages 74. For this purpose, the passages communicate with air chests 89, 90 which communicate with the main source of air supply. The mixed materials are fed from a hopper 101, Fig. 2, by a rotating scoop 108 to a shoot 112 with adjustable deflectors 117 by which the feed to various parts of the crosssection of the table is regulated. Preferably deflector strips inclined forwardly and inwardly may be supported above the bed of the materials for the purpose of maintaining the lighter materials at the top towards the centre of the table.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the supply of heat to fluidized solid systems
IPC: C10B49/10
Filed: 1947-04-23
Abstract: A method of supplying heat to a fluidized bed of solids comprises contacting the fluidized mass with a heat-transfer surface heated by a fluid combustion mixture burning in contact with the surface which also separates the burning mixture and the fluidized mass.  The heat transfer surface may comprise conventional heating coils or banks of tubes disposed within the fluidized bed and through the fluid combustion mixture is circulated or the fluidized mass may be contained within the heat transfer surfaces which are surrounded by the fluid combustion mixture.  In a modification, a portion of the fluidized solids is withdrawn from the bed, circulated in indirect heat exchange with the burning fluid combustion mixture and returned to the bed.  The preferred fluid combustion mixtures are (a) a suspension of powdered solid fuel in air and (b) a mixture of combustible gases and air in which finely divided inert solids are suspended.  The method may be applied to the conversion of petroleum, oil shale and pitch; and to the reformation of methane or the like with steam to produce a synthesis gas.  A fluidized bed containing a reformer catalyst such as nickel oxide with promoters such as magnesia and alumina is maintained in a single reaction zone heated to a temperature of about 1500 DEG  F. by a fluid combustion mixture passed through a bank of tubes disposed within the fluidized bed, a mixture of steam and natural gas being introduced into the zone.  The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 also provided for the use of the following fluid heating mediums; liquids such as refractory oils or fused inorganic salt mixtures (e.g. a mixture of NaNO3, NaNO2 and KNO3); molten metals (e.g. lead); mercury vapours; hot combustion gases. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
