Abstract
A reactor comprises a cylindrical body (1) with a lower cylindrical portion (5) and an upper cylindrical portion (6) of greater diameter than the lower portion, mutually connected by a connecting ring (7), a filtering ring (2) arranged in the lower part of the upper portion (6) and supported by the connecting ring (7), and an inner cylindrical member (3) having, at the lower end thereof, a flange (8) bearing on the filtering ring (7) and providing a gap (9) between the outer periphery of the flange (8) and the inner wall of the upper portion (6), wherein all the rotary elements are coaxially disposed.
Claims8
A reactor for the implementation of chemical reactions involving a biomass and a reaction liquid, wherein the said reactor comprises:
- (1) a cylindrical body (1) including a cylindrical lower portion (5) and an upper cylindrical portion (6), which is coaxial with said upper portion and whose diameter is larger than that of the lower portion, joined to each other by a connection ring (7);
- (2) a filtration ring (2) located in the lower part of the upper portion (6) and resting on the connecting ring (7);
- and
- (3) an inner cylindrical component (3) which is coaxial with the cylindrical body (1) and which has, at its lower extremity, a flange (8) which rests on the filtration ring (2) and forms a free space (9) between the outer periphery of the flange (8) and the inner wall of the upper portion (6).
