Provided are a method of treating spent caustic occurring in a refinery process, a petrochemical process, and an environmental facility, and an apparatus thereof, wherein the spent caustic may be economically treated by a Fenton-like oxidation reaction at room temperature and atmospheric pressure in a reactor in which catalyst structures are stacked as compared to conventional methods of treating spent caustic.

An installation tool for installing reactor components into a reactor is disclosed. The tool comprises a housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; a releasable attachment assembly for securing a reactor component support to the tool, the attachment assembly being pivotably inside the housing; a gas supply hose connected to the first end of the housing; and a gas outlet at the second end of the housing in fluid communication with the gas supply hose. The gas outlet is configured to provide gas to expand a reactor component secured by the releasable attachment assembly. A control line for the releasable attachment assembly runs inside the gas supply hose.

Assembly of a fluidized bed reactor for the preparation of polycrystalline silicon granules by chemical vapor deposition of silicon onto seed particles and removal of polycrystalline silicon granules is facilitated without breakage and with gas tightness by a specific assembly sequence.

The invention is in the field of catalysis. In particular, the invention is directed to a catalytic reactor body, a method for the production of a catalytic reactor body and a use of a catalytic reactor body.

The invention provides a catalytic reactor body, comprising a circumferential reactor wall extending in a main fluid flow direction of the reactor body between a reactor inlet and a reactor outlet thereby forming a channel for conducting a fluid; and a reactor bed arranged in the channel and being integrally formed with the circumferential reactor wall, wherein the reactor bed forms a plurality of sub-channels for guiding the fluid from the reactor inlet to the reactor outlet, each sub-channel defining a predetermined fluid path between the reactor inlet and the reactor outlet and being configured for directing the fluid in a direction at least partly transverse to the main flow direction.

A system of treating waste materials (28) is provided, and includes a waste treatment reactor (10) configured to treat the waste materials. The waste treatment reactor (10) has a cylindrical body (12) having an inlet (14) to receive the waste materials, a waste chamber (26) to store the waste materials, and an outlet (16) configured to deliver treated waste materials out of the waste chamber. A bundle reactor (38) has the waste treatment reactor and performs a waste treatment for the waste materials stored in the waste chamber. An energy recirculation assembly (40) is connected to the bundle reactor and recirculates thermal energy associated with the bundle reactor during the waste treatment. The energy recirculation assembly (40) has a heating unit (42) to heat a first region of the bundle reactor, and a cooling unit (44) to cool a second region of the bundle reactor.

The present invention disclosed an efficient, continuous flow process for the synthesis metal nanowires by using a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTRs) in series for varying the aspect ratio of metal nanowires and nanorods formed by feeding affixed quantities of metal salt and polymeric surfactant with a reducing solvent like glycol to an axially mixed reactor.

There is disclosed a near shore floating vessel for large scale production of methanol (capable of producing at least 4000 tons per 24-hour day) from natural gas (methane) and for export shipment. More specifically, the near shore floating vessel obtains methane from an on-shore methane stream or pipeline. The disclosed near-shore floating vessel provides several environmental and commercial advantages to move methane export to a near shore instead of an on-shore location.

An installation tool for installing reactor components into a reactor is disclosed. The tool comprises a housing having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; a releasable attachment assembly for securing a reactor component support to the tool, the attachment assembly being pivotably inside the housing; a gas supply hose connected to the first end of the housing; and a gas outlet at the second end of the housing in fluid communication with the gas supply hose. The gas outlet is configured to provide gas to expand a reactor component secured by the releasable attachment assembly. A control line for the releasable attachment assembly runs inside the gas supply hose.

Embodiments of the invention relate to systems, methods, and equipment to make lithium hydroxide from lithium salts.

A process layout for large scale methanol synthesis comprises one or more boiling water reactors and one or more radial flow reactors in series, the boiling water reactor(s) being fed with approximately fresh make-up syngas. The methanol synthesis loop comprises a make-up gas compressor K1, a recycle gas compressor K2, two or more boiling water converters for methanol synthesis (A1, A2, . . . ), a radial flow converter (B) for methanol synthesis, a steam drum (V1), a high pressure separator (V2), a low pressure separator (V3), feed effluent heat exchangers (E1 and E2), a wash column (C), an air cooler (E3) and a water cooler (E4).
