A system of product gas collecting conduits for a steam reformer, containing a plurality of reaction tubes within a reformer housing, for the production of synthesis gas, comprising: a) a product gas collecting conduit arranged outside the reformer housing of the steam reformer, b) several port tubes arranged along the length of the conduit for connecting one reaction tube each to the product gas collecting conduit, c) at least one windshield for the protection of the product gas collecting conduit against wind and draft.

An actuator is provided that includes a housing, a linear actuating shaft disposed within the housing, a piston coupled with the shaft, and a fluid barrier disposed on an end of the shaft and encircled by the piston. The piston is movable longitudinally between an extended configuration and a retracted configuration upon rotation of the shaft. The fluid barrier engages an inner surface of the piston preventing fluid communication across the fluid barrier. The fluid barrier has a shaft engaging side which receives the shaft and a fluid facing side. A cavity is formed between the piston and the fluid facing side and expands when the piston moves to the extended configuration and contracts when the piston moves to the retracted configuration. A port is disposed in the piston and extends from the cavity to external the piston thereby permitting fluid communication between the cavity and external the piston.

Polymerization reactor systems providing integrated liquid-solid sampling systems are disclosed. Methods for operating such polymerization reactor systems and for measuring a property of the liquid portion of liquid-solid mixture are described.

Disclosed herein are methods and systems for purging a polymer product of volatiles. The methods and systems are particularly useful in the purging of a polyethylene polymer product produced in a fluidized bed reactor.

Systems and methods generally involve processing a gaseous reducing agent and a gaseous reforming agent to produce syngas in the presence of a stable-phase change metal-oxide based oxygen carrier. During operation, an oxygen content is measured for a reactor input stream and a reactor output stream. A percent oxygen depletion of the metal oxide is determined using an initial oxygen content of the metal oxide, the oxygen content of the input stream, and the oxygen content of the output stream. Based on the percent oxygen depletion, a mole ratio of reducing gas to oxidant in the input stream may be adjusted accordingly.

The invention relates to an integrated process for assessing one or more properties of a catalyst. In the method, a standard chemical reactor or reactors is/are provided, and a bypass means is also provided, to transport a sample of whatever is added to the industrial reactor, to the test reactor. Both gases and liquids are transferred to the test reactor.

Provided are a system and method for preparing barium carbonate by enhancing alkanolamine absorption and mineralization of CO2. The system includes a rotating packed bed provided with a first gas inlet, a first exhaust port, a first liquid inlet, and a first liquid outlet. An absorbent barren liquid storage container in communication with the first liquid inlet through a pipeline on which a water pump is arranged. A rich liquid storage container is in communication with the first liquid outlet through a pipeline. A saturated liquid storage container, an ultrasonic mineralization reaction device, and a mineralization feedstock storage container. The saturated liquid storage container is in communication with the rich liquid storage container and the ultrasonic mineralization reactor through a pipeline, respectively. The mineralization feedstock storage container is communicated with the ultrasonic mineralization reaction device through a pipeline on which a feeding blower is arranged.
