Disclosed is a reaction device, comprising: a reactor body (100) and a supply device (200), wherein the reactor body (100) has a first end (106) and a second end (107) and is used for accommodating a reaction liquid, with a first injection port (101) being provided between the first end (106) and the second end (107), and a discharge port (109) being provided at the second end (107); and the supply device (200) is in communication with the first injection port (101) to inject a continuous phase, wherein the continuous phase directionally flows in the reactor body (100) to form or maintain a parameter gradient in the reactor body (100). By means of injecting the continuous phase into the first injection port (101) on the reactor body (100), the solution presents a certain parameter gradient on two sides of the first injection port (101) in the reactor body (100).

The present invention relates to a reaction method for forming a layered structure of immiscible liquid-phase concentric layers within a rotary reactor and a reaction system including the layered structure, and may provide a basis capable of efficiently performing a multistage reaction in terms of time and space.

Removal of solids accumulations that are attached to an inlet tube sheet of a heat exchanger in a hydrogenation reactor system by injecting a flush liquid through an injection port on the heat exchanger. Injecting the flush liquid removes portions of the solids accumulations.

A radioactive sodium destruction facility includes a tank for storing liquid metallic sodium, located at a first level; a reaction vessel containing an aqueous solution; a sodium feed circuit comprising a sodium circulation member located at a second level higher than the first level, the circulation member having a suction in fluid communication with the tank and a discharge in fluid communication with the reaction vessel; an inert gas supply unit configured to supply the tank; a controller driving the sodium circulation member; and an inert gas supply unit configured to supply the tank; and a controller driving the supply unit to control a gas pressure in the tank, such that a pressure at the suction of the sodium circulation member is maintained within a predetermined range.

Disclosed herein are methods for preparing nanomaterials, such as nanoparticles. The methods can involve jet-mixing two or more precursor solutions to form the nanomaterials. By rapidly mixing the precursor solutions, nanomaterials of improved quality and uniformity can be prepared in high yield (e.g., in yields of at least 85%). The methods are also scalable, and allow for the continuous production of nanomaterials. Also provided are jet-mixing reactors that can be used to prepare nanomaterials using the methods described herein.

A carbonylation process for producing acetic acid including: (a) carbonylating methanol or its reactive derivatives in the presence of a Group VIII metal catalyst and methyl iodide promoter to produce a liquid reaction mixture including acetic acid, water, methyl acetate and methyl iodide; (b) feeding the liquid reaction mixture to a flash vessel; (c) flashing the reaction mixture to produce a crude product vapor stream.

The invention relates to a thermal conversion vessel (200) used during amidification step of acetone cyanohydrin (ACH), in the industrial process for production of a methyl methacrylate (MMA) or methacrylic acid (MAA). The thermal conversion vessel (200) is used for converting an hydrolysis mixture of α-hydroxyisobutyramide (HIBAM), α-sulfatoisobutyramide (SIBAM), 2-methacrylamide (MACRYDE) and methacrylique acid (MAA), into a mixture of 2-methacrylamide (MACRYDE). It comprises:—at least one compartment (C1, C2, C3, . . . Ci) comprising an inner wall (206a, 206b, . . . 206i) separating said compartment into two communicating parts (C1a, C1b) by a passage provided between the bottom of said vessel and said inner wall,—said compartment having a space above said inner wall, for separating gas phase from liquid phase during thermal conversion,—said compartment being connected to an outlet valve (204a, 204b, . . . 204i). Such vessel allows obtaining a high yield thermal conversion in very safe conditions.
