Process for the positioning of a corrosion-resistant coating on a wall of an item of equipment of a FCC unit
The invention relates to a process for the positioning of a corrosion-resistant coating on an internal or external metal wall (20) of a fluid catalytic cracking unit chamber, comprising: (i) the shaping of a metal anchoring structure (10) formed from a plurality of strips (12) assembled in pairs by joining assembly portions (121, 122) so as to form a plurality of cells (14), the anchoring structure comprising a plurality of fastening tabs (16) integral with strip portions other than assembly portions, (ii) the fastening of said anchoring structure (10) by welding the free edge (18) of a part at least of the fastening tabs to the metal wall (20), defining a space between a longitudinal edge (12b) of an anchoring structure and the metal wall, (iii) the insertion of a composite material into the cells (14) from the metal wall (20) and at least up to the upper longitudinal edge (12a) of each strip.
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTINUOUSLY PRODUCING CATALYSTS BASED ON LOW-TEMPERATURE COPRECIPITATION
The present disclosure discloses a device and a method for continuously producing catalysts based on low-temperature coprecipitation. The device mainly includes: a metal salt preparation kettle, a primary reaction kettle, a secondary reaction kettle, a precipitant preparation kettle, a circulating refrigeration system, an automatic control system, a non-aqueous solvent storage tank and a water storage tank. Independent preparation kettles are provided for rapid dissolution of the raw materials, and can be used to prepare the raw materials for the next batch during the reactions that are carried out in the primary and secondary reaction kettles; the circulating refrigeration system refrigerates the primary and secondary reaction kettles, and thus during the reaction, the low-temperature precipitant makes it possible to offset the precipitation reaction heat and the heat caused by the stirring in the primary reaction kettle, and improve the refrigeration efficiency of the primary reaction kettle.
Method and Reactor for Conversion of Hydrocarbons
A reactor (12, 128, 198) and method for the conversion of hydrocarbon gases utilizes a reactor (12, 128, 198) having a unique feed assembly (58, 136, 200) with an original vortex disk-like inlet flow spaces (72, 74, 76, 80, 146, 148, 150, 152, 208, 216, 218), a converging-diverging vortex mixing chamber (116), and a cylindrical reactor chamber (40). This design creates a small combustion zone and an inwardly swirling fluid flow pattern of the feed gases that passes through a converging conduit (48) with a constricted neck portion (54). This provides conditions suitable for efficient cracking of hydrocarbons, such as ethane, to form olefins.

Triggering Exothermic Reactions Under High Hydrogen Loading Rates
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for triggering an exothermic reaction under a high hydrogen loading rate. It is generally understood that a high hydrogen loading ratio is an important factor. The present application teaches that a high hydrogen loading rate, that is, achieving a high hydrogen loading ratio in a short period of time, is another important factor in determining whether excess heat can be observed in an exothermic reaction. The present application discloses methods and apparatus for achieving a high hydrogen loading rate in order to trigger an exothermic reaction.
