Abstract
The present invention is to provide a gas-liquid processing apparatus having a high contact efficiency of a gas and a liquid and a high reaction efficiency at a low production cost. A static type fluid mixer, includes a passage pipe for the passage of a fluid and a spiral blade body arranged in the passage pipe with the longitudinal direction substantially perpendicularly but being absent in the center portion of the passage pipe. A liquid and a gas are supplied into the static type fluid mixer and a fluid is returned from the bottom portion of the static type fluid mixer to the upper portion via the pipe for the fluid circulation. The fluid is maintained in the static type fluid mixer at a pressured state higher than the atmospheric pressure.
Claims4
A gas-liquid processing apparatus comprising:
- a container;
- a plurality of static fluid mixers arranged in series within said container, each of which has a passage pipe for passage of a fluid and a spiral blade body arranged in the passage pipe, said fluid mixers being arranged in said container so as to provide an entry thereto through a plane substantially perpendicular to an axis of the passage pipe and form a space between said container and said fluid mixers;
- at least one spacer with a hole arranged between said fluid mixers, said spacer being arranged in said container so as to form a space between said fluid mixers arranged in series, said hole providing fluid communication between said container and said fluid mixers;
- a liquid supply for supplying a liquid to said passage pipe;
- a gas supply device supplying a gas to said passage pipe;
- a fluid consisting of said liquid and gas upon being mixed in a pressured state higher than atmospheric pressure in said fluid mixer;
- and
- a circulating device returning said fluid from a bottom portion of the static fluid mixers to an upper portion thereof for circulating the fluid.
