The invention relates to an injection device (10) for atomizing a liquid into droplets using a gas, comprising a hollow tubular body (12) having a longitudinal direction (X). An inner wall (13) defines a first region, referred to as contact region (Z1), and a second region (Z2). The body (12) has an inner cross-section that varies continuously or constantly over the entire length thereof except at the junction between the first and second regions, where the inner wall (13) of the body includes at least one cavity (201) which increases the size of the inner cross-section of the body, said at least one cavity extending over a predefined length in the longitudinal direction.

Provided is a method for producing a fluorine-containing organic compound. The method can immediately detect the occurrence of a side reaction in direct fluorination reaction using fluorine gas and can give a highly pure fluorine-containing organic compound at a high yield. A raw material liquid (1) containing a raw material organic compound having a hydrogen atom and two or more carbon atoms is reacted with fluorine gas in a reaction container (11) to replace the hydrogen atom of the raw material organic compound with a fluorine atom to give a fluorine-containing organic compound. In the reaction, tetrafluoromethane contained in a gas phase (2) in the reaction container (11) is continuously measured, and the amount of the fluorine gas supplied to the reaction container (11) is controlled depending on the measured value of the tetrafluoromethane.

A gas nozzle (100), a gas reaction device (10) and a gas hydrolysis reaction method. A plurality of fuel gas channels (116) are provided on a side wall of a nozzle cavity (110) of the gas nozzle (100); the plurality of fuel gas channels (116) are arranged around the side wall of the nozzle cavity (110); a mixed gas introduced from a nozzle inlet (112) is surrounded by a fuel gas (21) introduced from the plurality of fuel gas channels (116); and the fuel gas channels (116) are inclined towards a nozzle outlet (114), and the fuel gas channels (116) are further inclined in the same clockwise direction. In this way, the fuel gas (21) introduced from the plurality of fuel gas channels (116) forms a downwardly conical spiral flame, and a flame formed by the mixed gas introduced from the nozzle inlet (112) is wrapped therein and sprayed out from the nozzle outlet (114).

A feedstock gas, such as natural gas, is introduced into a mixing chamber. A combustible gas is introduced into a combustion chamber, for example simultaneously to the introduction of the feedstock gas. Thereafter, the combustible gas is ignited so as to cause the combustible gas to flow into the mixing chamber via one or more fluid flow paths between the combustion chamber and the mixing chamber, and to mix with the feedstock gas. The mixing of the combustible gas with the feedstock gas causes one or more products to be produced.

A refractory-lined equipment includes a vessel defining an interior at least partially lined with a refractory material, and a nozzle assembly coupled to the vessel and extending into the interior. The nozzle assembly includes an outer sleeve fixed to the sidewall and extending through an aperture defined in the sidewall, the outer sleeve defining a central passageway, and a nozzle cartridge assembly positionable within the central passageway and including an inner sleeve, a refractory lining disposed about the inner sleeve, and a nozzle positioned within the inner sleeve. The nozzle cartridge assembly is removably coupled to the outer sleeve external to the vessel.

A system for capturing CO.sub.2 from a dilute gas source includes a gas-liquid contactor including a housing coupled to a plurality of structural members; one or more basins positioned within the housing and configured to hold a CO.sub.2 capture solution, the one or more basins including a bottom basin; one or more packing sections positioned at least partially above the bottom basin; a fan operable to circulate a CO.sub.2-laden gas through the one or more packing sections; and a liquid distribution system configured to flow the CO.sub.2 capture solution onto the one or more packing sections.

An apparatus and a method for washing hydrocarbon product vapor are disclosed. The apparatus comprises housing, a first wash zone at a predefined cross-section of the housing for receiving the hydrocarbon product vapor, a plurality of injection units located within the first wash zone at predetermined intervals of the length of the housing for receiving wash oil. The injection units inject oil droplets formed from the received wash oil to contact the vapor and obtain a primary washed hydrocarbon vapor within the first wash zone. Further, a second wash zone is located above and in fluid communication with the first wash zone for receiving the primary washed hydrocarbon vapor. One or more spray headers receive wash oil and spray oil droplets formed from the received wash oil to contact with the primary washed hydrocarbon vapor, thereby forming a secondary washed hydrocarbon vapor.

The invention is directed to a chemical reactor (100) having (a) two or more gas reactor elements (12) with each gas reactor element (12) having (i) a first reaction chamber (38), and (ii) a feed assembly unit (36), (b) a second reaction chamber (20) coupled with each of the two or more gas reactor elements (12) and configured to independently receive two or more product streams from the two or more gas reactor elements (12); and optionally, (c) a gas converging section (40) located downstream to the second reaction chamber (20). The invention is further directed to a method of producing chemical products using the chemical reactor (100) of the present invention.
