An apparatus for treating the atmosphere of a storage space for vegetable products with a volume greater than 200 m.sup.3, includes a contacting device having a packing; an injector configured to inject a liquid flow into the contacting device; and a circulator configured to circulate the storage atmosphere in the contacting device. The contacting device is configured such that the storage atmosphere is brought into contact with the liquid flow by circulation in the packing.

The present invention relates to a process and contactor vessel in which gas and liquid contact occurs to facilitate mass transfer therebetween. In one embodiment, the process includes a fluidised bed including mobile inert primary objects and secondary particles that facilitate turbulent mixing and enhanced gas/liquid surface area in the contactor.

A rotor for rotating packed bed units (RPBs) is described. The rotor comprises a first plate and a second plate. The rotor further comprises a plurality of sets of rings concentrically interposed between the first plate and the second plate. Each set of rings comprises a plurality of rings are arranged cylindrically. Further, each ring comprises a plurality of packing elements. The rotor further comprises at least one metallic ring interposed between the plurality of sets of rings.

The invention provides a device and system for decomposing and oxidizing of gaseous pollutants. A novel reaction portion reduces particle formation in fluids during treatment, thereby improving the defect of particle accumulation in a reaction portion. Also, the system includes the device, wherein a modular design enables the system to have the advantage of easy repair and maintenance.

A paraffin having 2-8 carbon atoms may be dehydrogenated by contacting the paraffin with metal oxide catalyst(s) to produce light olefins, such as propylene, under certain reaction conditions in a riser, fluidized bed, or fixed-bed swing reactor. The resulting metal oxide catalyst fines contained in the reactor effluent stream formed by the dehydrogenation reaction may be recovered by contacting the reactor effluent stream with a wash fluid to form a catalyst effluent stream that is subsequently slurried and filtered to capture the catalyst fines for potential reuse.

A method and device for waste gas dedusting and a dedusting agent used in the method. A dust-containing waste gas (1) and an organic dedusting agent (4) are introduced into a dedusting tower (3), respectively, and make contact with each other in the tower; at least part of the water vapor in the dust-containing waste gas (1) is condensed, and the organic dedusting agent (4) and the condensed water adsorb solid particles, acidic pollutants, organic pollutants and/or heavy metal compounds in the dust-containing waste gas; and the resulting purified gas (2) is emptied out or subjected to a subsequent process. The organic dedusting agent (4) comprises a non-toxic and high boiling point organic solvent composition, being two or more selected from cooking oil, silicone oil, modified silicone oil, liquid-state asphalt oil, tung tree seed oil, liquid-state paraffin wax oil, mineral oil, palm oil and waste cooking oil.
