FISCHER-TROPSCH PROCESS IN A RADIAL REACTOR

In a process for converting synthesis gas to higher hydrocarbons in a tubular reactor, reactants are introduced through an inlet of the reactor. The reactants are passed downwardly through at least one tube to an upper surface of a catalyst carrier where they pass into a passage defined by an inner...

Zusammenfassung:	In a process for converting synthesis gas to higher hydrocarbons in a tubular reactor, reactants are introduced through an inlet of the reactor. The reactants are passed downwardly through at least one tube to an upper surface of a catalyst carrier where they pass into a passage defined by an inner perforated wall of a catalyst container before passing radially through the catalyst bed towards the perforated outer wall. Reaction occurs as the synthesis gas contacts the catalyst. Unreacted reactant and product is passed out of the container through a perforated outer wall thereof and then upwardly between a skirt and an outer wall of the container, followed by being directed over the end of the skirt and downwardly between the skirt and the reactor tube where heat transfer takes place. These steps are repeated for any subsequent catalyst carrier, then product is removed from an outlet of the reactor.
