Abstract
The present invention relates to a reactor for producing synthesis gas which has a fluid-tight connection to a heat exchanger, and to a process for producing synthesis gas, preferably under high pressure, by using the reactor. The reactor comprises a mixer, a mixing space, a reactor space, separate inlets for at least two fluid reactants and an outlet for at least one fluid product, and a reactor shell surrounding these, and wherein the mixer comprises a mixer base, at least one mixer disk with channels for a first fluid, at least one mixer disk with channels for a second fluid, a mixer closure, and a mixer lid.
Claims19
A reactor for the preparation of synthesis gas, wherein the reactor comprises a mixer, a mixing space, a reactor space, separate inlets for at least two fluid reactants and an outlet for at least one fluid product, and a reactor shell surrounding these, and wherein the mixer comprises a mixer base, at least one mixer disk with channels for a first fluid, at least one mixer disk with channels for a second fluid, a mixer closure, and a mixer lid and the reactor comprises
- an outer fluid-tight inlet for at least one reactant between reactor shell and mixer inside the reactor, within which there is disposed at least one fluid-tight inlet for a further reactant,
- and
- a countercurrent construction with regard to a flow of the reactants in the inlet between the mixing space and the outlet.
