Zusammenfassung: | Unsaturated hydrocarbons are produced by incomplete combustion or pyrolysis in a vertically disposed furnace through which the gases travel downwardly and in which the walls are protected by a steam screen injected downwardly over the wall and progressively condensed on the wall to form a film of water by circulation of a cooling fluid round the external surface of the reactor walls. The steam is injected in an amount of 20-40 cubic metre per hour for each 100 mm. of the periphery of the wall and 10-20 litres of water are circulated as cooling fluid for each cubic metre of steam injected, the cooling water entering at 15-20 DEG C. and leaving at 65-70 DEG C. The Figure shows a reactor of the type described in Specification 855,523. Hydrogen and oxygen are injected by channels 9 and 10 and steam by channels 13 and 14. Hydrocarbon to be pyrolysed enters by inlets 16 and the steam screen by inlet 25. Cooling water enters jacket 22 by line 23 and leaves by line 24. Quenching liquid is injected through jets. 7. Specification 855,532 also is referred to. |
