A high-temperature flow-splitting component, applicable to a temperature range from a first temperature to a second temperature, includes an entrance channel, at least one primary channel and at least one subordinate channel. The entrance channel is used for introducing a fluid at a total flow rate. The at least one primary channel for introducing the fluid from the entrance channel at a first flow rate is connected with the entrance channel by a first angle ranging from 90°˜270°. The at least one subordinate channel for introducing the fluid from the entrance channel at a second flow rate is connected with the at least one primary channel by a second angle ranging from 30°˜150°. A sum of the first flow rate and the second flow rate is equal to the total flow rate.

What is described is an apparatus comprising a reactor for dehydrogenating a hydrogen-enriched liquid hydrogen carrier, wherein the reactor comprises at least one hydrogen carrier inlet for the entry of the hydrogen-enriched liquid hydrogen carrier, at least one reactor chamber for at least partial separation of gaseous hydrogen from the hydrogen carrier and for conversion of the hydrogen carrier into an at least partially dehydrogenated state, at least one hydrogen carrier outlet for release of the hydrogen carrier in an at least partially dehydrogenated state, at least one hydrogen outlet for release of the hydrogen separated from the hydrogen carrier, at least one first plate-shaped element and at least one second plate-shaped element, wherein at least one section of the at least one reactor chamber is disposed between the first plate-shaped element and the second plate-shaped element. The invention has this special feature that the at least one first plate-shaped element includes at least one arrangement of a first section and of a second section spaced apart from the first section in a direction transverse to a plane substantially defined by the first plate-shaped element, and the first section of the first plate-shaped element is joined with sealing to the at least one second plate-shaped element so that a first section of the reaction chamber is formed between the second section of the first plate-shaped element and the second plate-shaped element.

A modular device for generating hydrogen gas from a hydrogen liquid carrier may include a housing; an inlet for receiving the hydrogen liquid carrier; and at least one cartridge arranged within the housing. The cartridge may include at least one catalyst configured to cause a release of hydrogen gas when exposed to the hydrogen liquid carrier. The modular device may include a gas outlet for expelling the hydrogen gas released in the modular device and a liquid outlet for expelling spent hydrogen liquid carrier.

A reverse flow reactor (RFR) and process having a forward reaction feed cycle, a reverse reaction feed cycle, and a reverse regeneration cycle. The heat convected in the forward feed cycle matches the heat convected in the reverse flow cycles. Compared to an RFR without the reverse feed cycle, the three-cycle RPR substantially reduces the regeneration air flow rate, associated compression requirements, and the overall reactor volume, that are required.

In a reactor, a first reference position is presumed to be defined by a straight line in contact with a first open end of the introduction port on the side bent toward the second flow channel and extending in the direction intersecting with the second flow channels, and a second reference position is presumed to be defined by a straight line in contact with a second open end of the introduction port on the opposite side of the first open end and extending in the direction intersecting with the second flow channel. At least part of the catalyst body is provided at least either in a region defined between the first reference position and the second reference position, or in a region defined between the second reference position and an inlet position of the first flow channels.

A dehydrogenation chemical reactor includes: a housing; a catalyst part made of a thermally conductive material and disposed in the housing, where the catalyst part has a panel shape, and a catalyst is coated on a surface of the catalyst part to separate hydrogen from an organic hydrogen carrier; a heat transfer pipe which is installed to contact the catalyst part, and conducts latent heat to the catalyst part while pressurized and saturated fluid is supplied therein; and an organic hydrogen carrier line which is connected to the housing to form a passage in which the organic hydrogen carrier is introduced into the housing, contacts the catalyst part to separate hydrogen, and then is discharged.

The present invention relates to processes and apparatus useful for (fast) ionic polymerisation of liquid monomer(s) containing reaction mixture for the production of the corresponding polymer(s).

A fuel tank for storing a hydrogen liquid carrier and a spent hydrogen liquid carrier includes a substantially rigid exterior tank wall including a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber is fluidly disconnected from the second chamber, and the second chamber includes a dynamically expandable and contractible enclosure, the enclosure being configured to define a dynamic boundary between the hydrogen liquid carrier and spent hydrogen liquid carrier. The fuel tank also includes a first channel in flow communication with one of the first chamber or the second chamber and a second channel in flow communication with another of the first chamber or the second chamber, wherein the first channel and the second channel are flow connected such that a flow through one of the first or second channels is returned to the another of the first or second channels, and that during the flow, the dynamic boundary changes position causing a change in a volume of the second chamber.
