A hydrocarbon is produced by applying mechanical energy to a metal body containing stainless steel by solid-solid contact so that a contact pressure per unit area is 30 kPa or more, in the presence of a gas containing carbon dioxide and a hydrogen source, thereby adding hydrogen to carbon dioxide. Further, a hydrocarbon is produced by providing a reaction vessel for applying mechanical energy to a metal body by solid-solid contact in the presence of a gas containing carbon dioxide and a hydrogen source, a gas introduction unit for introducing the gas containing carbon dioxide to the reaction vessel, a hydrogen source introduction unit for introducing the hydrogen source to the reaction vessel, and a gas discharge unit for discharging a gas containing the hydrocarbon produced in the reaction vessel, and adding hydrogen to the carbon dioxide in the reaction vessel.

The disclosure provides a new and improved oligonucleotide synthesizer.

The present invention relates to a system for backmix the reagent mass in rotating cylindrical reactors. In this context, the present invention provides a system for internal backmix of the reagent mass in a rotating cylindrical reactor (2), comprising a first set of drag fins (27) adapted for dragging the reagent mass in a first direction, and a second set of drag fins (28) adapted for dragging the reagent mass in a second direction opposite to the first direction, wherein the first (27) and the second (28) set of drag fins are positioned internally along the length of the cylindrical rotating reactor (2). The system described above allows the mixing of a portion of the reagent mass at a more advanced stage of the reactor with another portion at an earlier stage of processing, homogenizing the reagent mass temperatures and increasing the reactor's productivity.

The present invention refers to a method for the preparation of zero-valent-transition metal nanowires such as crystalline silver nanowires, and to a reactor oven for the preparation of zero-valent-transition metal nanowires.

A continuous tubular reactor includes a rotary reaction tube having a reactant inlet and a product outlet, and including a ceramic; a heating device disposed outside the rotary reaction tube; and an angle adjuster adjusting an angle of a rotation axis of the rotary reaction tube. The angle of the rotation axis is 75 or less with respect to a horizontal surface.

A method of preparing a positive electrode active material that includes introducing a reaction mixture including a lithium source material and a nickel-manganese-cobalt precursor into a continuous firing furnace and subjecting the same to primary heat treatment, thereby preparing a fired mixture; subjecting the fired mixture to pulverization or size classification; and introducing the fired mixture having been pulverized or size-classified into a rotary kiln and subjecting the same to secondary heat treatment, thereby forming a lithium nickel manganese cobalt-based positive electrode active material.

Implementations set forth herein relate to a system for manipulating mass. The system can include one or more radiation emitting apparatuses and a material chamber that includes a material. The material can be caused to experience a centrifugal force according to a motion of the material chamber. While the material is experiencing the centrifugal force, the one or more radiation emitting apparatuses can cause the material to increase in temperature and experience an electromagnetic force. The combination of forces can affect properties of the material and/or any other materials that can be in direct and/or indirect contact with the material.
