Abstract
A reactor apparatus for loading a carrier medium with hydrogen and/or unloading it therefrom includes a reactor housing chargeable with carrier medium and having a carrier medium feed orifice, having a carrier medium removal orifice, having a base and having a hydrogen gas orifice. The reactor apparatus further includes at least one heat transfer element for supplying heat into the reactor housing. Catalyst has been provided in the reactor housing.
Claims21
A reactor apparatus for unloading hydrogen from a carrier medium, the reactor apparatus comprising:
- a reactor housing chargeable with carrier medium and the reactor housing having a carrier medium feed orifice, a carrier medium removal orifice, a base and a hydrogen gas orifice;
- at least one heat transfer element for supplying heat into the reactor housing;
- and
- at least one hydrogen gas duct which is disposed in the reactor housing and extends along a longitudinal axis.
A plant for loading a carrier medium with hydrogen, the plant comprising:
- a reactor apparatus comprising a reactor housing chargeable with carrier medium, at least one heat transfer element for supplying heat into the reactor housing and at least one gas inlet nozzle for introducing hydrogen gas into at least one hydrogen gas duct, the reactor housing having a carrier medium feed orifice, a carrier medium removal orifice, a base and a hydrogen gas orifice, wherein the reactor apparatus is configured as a hydrogenation reactor;
- a first storage means for storing hydrogen-laden carrier medium, the first storage means being connected to the reactor apparatus;
- a second storage means for storing carrier medium separated from hydrogen, the second storage means being connected to the reactor apparatus;
- and
- a hydrogen gas supply connected to the reactor apparatus.
