Patent EP-2227325-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BOWE MICHAEL JOSEPH
IPC: B01J19/24
Filed: 2008-09-24
Abstract: A reactor module for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis consists of a generally rectangular reactor block (10) comprising a stack of plates (12) defining flow channels (15) for coolant and flow channels (17, 117) for the synthesis reaction arranged alternately in the block. The synthesis flow channels (17, 117) extend in a generally vertical direction between upper and lower faces of the reactor block (10) and are defined by plates (12) in combination with either bars (18) or sheets (119) such that each channel is of width no more than 200 mm. The coolant flow channels (15) are oriented in the same direction, and communicate through distributor chambers (26) with inlet and outlet ports at side faces of the reactor block. A plant may contain a multiplicity of such reactor modules operating in parallel, the modules being interchangeable and replaceable. The temperature control is enhanced by allowing the coolant flow to be parallel to the synthesis gas flow.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring the power frequency of a light source includes a photo-sensor, a modulator, and a logic unit. The photo-sensor generates an electrical signal that is responsive to light incident thereon from the light source. The modulator generates a modulated signal based on the electrical signal that toggles at a rate substantially proportional to the power frequency of the light source. The logic unit is coupled to receive the modulated signal and determine its toggling frequency.
