A synthesis method and a synthesis device of cyclododecene according to the present invention have a high conversion rate of cyclododecatriene which is a reactant and a high selectivity of cyclododecene which is a required product, and even so, have an effect of significantly decreasing a reaction time. In addition, the method and the device have an excellent conversion rate of cyclododecatriene and an excellent selectivity of cyclododecene, while maintaining excellent reactivity without an organic solvent such as ethanol. Therefore, a volume of the reactor relative to an output of cyclododecene may be further decreased. Moreover, the method and the device may minimize costs for facilities and process, are practical, decrease a process time, and are industrially advantageous for mass production as compared with the conventional art.

A wet atomization apparatus includes: a process-target fluid storing container for storing the process-target fluid; a syringe including a gasket configured to be slid on an inner peripheral wall of the syringe by a plunger; a thin tube having one end inserted in the process-target fluid storing container and another end connected to the syringe; and a control section that performs control of the plunger to move forward and backward. Under the control by the control section, an atomization process is performed at least once in which the plunger is moved backward to allow the process-target fluid in the process-target fluid storing container to flow into the syringe via the thin tube so as to be stored in the syringe and the plunger is moved forward to return the process-target fluid stored in the syringe into the process-target fluid storing container via the thin tube.

The invention relates to an apparatus for the optical in-situ gas analysis that comprises a housing; a measuring lance whose one, first end is connected to the housing and whose other, second end projects into the gas to be measured; a light transmitter arranged in the housing whose light is conducted into the measuring lance and is reflected onto a light receiver by a reflector arranged at the second end, wherein the optical path defines an optical measurement path within the measuring lance; a gas-permeable filter through which the gas to be measured moves into the measurement path; and an evaluation device for evaluating received light signals of the light receiver. To provide an improved apparatus with which the problem of the condensate formation can be counteracted better, provision is made that the measuring lance has an agitation apparatus for agitating the gas in the measuring lance.
