A dynamic catalytic conversion reactor having a plurality of operating zones is disclosed that adjusts operation based on incoming hydrogen from a fluctuating renewable energy source. The dynamic reactor is configured to turn on and off supply of feed gas to certain zones based on hydrogen supply, and maintains catalyst activity within all operating and idle zones by applying one of a number of gas flow options through the idle zones. Methods and systems of using the dynamic reactor are also disclosed.

A carbon black reactor has a cooling function that does not change the diameter of the combustion port by continuously cooling the combustion port of the reactor. The carbon black reactor includes a body made of a metallic material which has a pair of flanges spaced apart from each other, and a combustion port with a central portion penetrated which combustion gas and feedstock oil are reacted while connecting the spaced flanges. A plurality of injection nozzles are configured to inject a feedstock oil into the combustion port, and a pair of cooling rooms are respectively provided on an inner plate surface of the flange facing each other A distribution cooling pipe surrounds an outer circumferential surface of the combustion port to be spaced apart to form a flow path, and is partitioned into a first supply flow path and a second supply flow path through a partition panel.

Equipment for automatic polymerization of polycondensation polymers and other polyurethane systems and method showing equipment (E) capable of mixing inputs in a controlled manner with regard to quantities, temperatures, stirring/mixing and reaction times, resulting in polymers for different purposes, including polycondensation polymers and polyurethanes, and also an operation method of said equipment (E) with regard to programming and execution of recipes.

A reactor and process for the production of bio-diesel. The reactor includes one or more coiled reaction lines. The lines are positioned within a tank containing a heat transfer media such as molten salt, maintained at about 750 F. A pump circulates the media within the tank. An emulsion of alcohol; refined feed stock, including glycerides and/or fatty acids; and preferably water is pumped through the reaction lines at temperatures and pressures sufficient to maintain the alcohol in a super-critical state. The curvature of the coils, pump pulsing, and the flow rate of the emulsion keep the emulsion in a turbulent state while in the reactor, ensuring thorough mixing of the alcohol and feed stock. The alcohol reacts with the glycerides and fatty acids to form bio-diesel. The reaction is fast, efficient with regard to energy input and waste generation, and requires minimal alcohol.

A continuous flow reactor without any moving parts to facilitate solid-liquid reaction without clogging is disclosed herein. It comprises plurality of identical cavities in series/sequence, each cavity being provided with: a pair of inlets at the top to allow entry of reactants into the reactor; an outlet at the bottom to allow the reactants to the next cavity for mixing; and a jacket covering around the cavities to provide heating or cooling effect as per the requirement. The outlet of the previous cavity is inclined at a suitable angle relative to the outlet of the next cavity to prevent clogging and facilitate efficient mixing of the reactants.
