摘要:
A vessel, in which a chemical reaction is carried out in the presence of a catalyst, comprises a bed (4) of solid catalytic particles, delimited by at least one wall (1, 10, 11) and a base (2). The base comprises at least one gravity extraction device (3) for the particles and a succession of ridges and hollows forming pleats. The ridges and hollows are oriented towards the extraction device. This succession is advantageously formed by an assembly of facets, which are preferably trapezoidal. The invention has particular application to mobile bed reactors, in particular those used for catalytic reforming of petroleum cuts.

Process for the treatment of a hydrocarbon fraction containing metals and comprising the following stages: (a) the said hydrocarbon fraction is treated in the presence of mean density particles (d.sub.o) under conditions for eliminating at least partly the metals contained therein and deposits of said metals on at least one fraction of said solid particles; (b) at least part of the solid particles from stage (a), whose mean density is (d.sub.i) is drawn off; (c) said solid particles from stage (b) are magnetohydrostatically separated by introducing said solid particles into a ferrofluid placed in a non-uniform magnetic field and creating a vertical magnetic field, whose intensity is adjusted in such a way that the apparent mean density (d.sub.af) of the ferrofluid permits the separation of said solid particles into at least one mean density fraction (d.sub.i) below said apparent mean density (d.sub.af) of the ferrofluid and into at least one mean density fraction (d.sub.s) above said mean apparent density (d.sub.af) of the ferrofluid and above the mean density (d.sub.1) of the solid particles drawn off in stage (b); (b) at least one fraction of said mean density solid particles (d.sub.s) is recovered; and (e) recycling takes place to stage (a) of at least one fraction of said mean density solid particles (d.sub.i).

An apparatus is provided for concentrating fine or broken particles to separate a particle stream into at least one stream which is concentrated in fine or broken particles and at least one stream with a reduced concentration of fine or broken particles. In addition to introduction and extraction structure, the apparatus includes at least two separator stages each comprising at least one funnel with an inclined or substantially vertical axis which opens upwardly, located beneath an inlet to collect the particles. The funnel is connected to at least one deflector which is directed downwardly to allow particles to flow under gravity and to form a bank of particles at the level of the funnel.
