摘要: A method and device are disclosed herein for distributing a gas into a vessel. The method comprises providing a gas distribution apparatus, wherein an exposed surface of the apparatus comprises a material that inhibits adsorption of the gas and deposition of the gas' solid form. The material chosen is chemically repulsive to the gas and the gas' solid form. In this manner, desublimation of the gas and deposition of the gas' solid form onto the exposed surface is prevented. The device disclosed herein is the gas distribution apparatus referenced above.

摘要: A method for preventing blockage of a cryogenic injection system is disclosed. The cryogenic injection system is provided comprising a gas feed line attached to a gas distributor. A gas is fed through the gas feed line and the gas distributor into a cryogenic liquid. A portion of the gas feed line passes through the cryogenic liquid. An insulative layer is provided for the portion of the gas feed line that passes through the cryogenic liquid. Heat transfer through the insulative layer between the portion of the gas feed line and the cryogenic liquid is countered sufficiently to prevent blockage of the gas feed line by a component or components of the gas. In this manner, blockage of the cryogenic injection system is prevented.

摘要: A process for forming a solid product or products is disclosed. The process is provided with n desublimating exchangers. An exchanger E1 being associated with a first exchanger and an exchanger En being associated with an nth exchanger, n representing the number of exchangers. The n exchangers comprise at least one direct-contact exchanger comprising a contact fluid. A process fluid is passed through the n exchangers in order from E1 through En. The process fluid comprises a product component or components. The solid product or products form from the product component or components in the plurality of exchangers by desublimation. The solid product or products are separated from the process fluid. In this manner, a solid product or products is formed.

摘要: A method for preventing fouling of a demister is disclosed. A process fluid is provided into a vessel. A gas is provided to a gas inlet of the vessel. The gas comprises a component that desublimates, crystallizes, solidifies, reacts, or a combination thereof, in the process fluid, forming a first solid. The gas is passed through the process fluid, the component of the gas forming the first solid, resulting in a component-depleted gas. The component-depleted gas is passed out of the process fluid, causing splashing or spurting of the process fluid and the first solid. The diverter section is provided between the demister and the gas inlet, the diverter section comprising a physical obstruction preventing the process fluid and the first solid from splashing or spurting onto the demister. In this manner, fouling of the demister is prevented.

摘要: Devices, systems, and methods for pressure-regulated melting are disclosed. A vessel includes a solids inlet, a fluids outlet, a cavity, and an energy source. Solids enter the vessel through the solids inlet. The cavity has an internal pressure. A backpressure is induced in the solids inlet. The energy source heats the vessel, the contents of the vessel, or a combination thereof. The rate of heating of the energy source is matched to a feed rate of the solids such that the solids are melted directly to a product liquid at the internal pressure. The product liquid passes through the fluids outlet through a restriction that maintains the internal pressure in the cavity.

摘要: A method for semi-continuous operation of a heat exchange process that alternates between two heat exchangers is disclosed. The method comprises, first, providing a contact liquid to a first heat exchanger while the second heat exchanger is on standby. The contact liquid contains a dissolved gas, an entrained gas, or residual small particles that foul the first heat exchanger by condensing or depositing as a foulant onto the first heat exchanger, restricting free flow of the contact liquid. Second, detecting a pressure drop across the first heat exchanger. Third, switching flows of the coolant from the first to the second heat exchanger. Fourth, removing the foulant from the now standby first heat exchanger by providing heat to the heat exchanger, passing a non-reactive gas through the heat exchanger, or a combination thereof. In this manner, the heat exchange process operates semi-continuously.

摘要: Devices, systems, and methods for pressure-regulated melting are disclosed. A vessel includes a solids inlet, a fluids outlet, a cavity, and a warm fluids inlet. Solids enter the vessel through the solids inlet. The cavity has an internal pressure. Warm fluids enter the vessel through the warm fluids inlet. The warm liquid being directed into the vessel provides an inlet pressure that produces a backpressure in the solids inlet. A feed rate of the warm liquid is matched to a feed rate of the solids such that the solids are melted directly to a product liquid at the internal pressure. The product liquid is passed out of the vessel through a restriction that maintains the internal pressure in the cavity.
