Abstract:
The present invention describes a liquid-liquid extraction column with perforated plates and downpipes, having a majority of so-called “open” plates and a minority of so-called “closed” plates, the two types of plates differing in the degree of perforation. Application of the said column to the treatment of liquid-liquid systems with time-variable coalescence.
Abstract:
The catalytic reactor consists of a chamber 1 that contains at least one catalyst bed 2 in solid form, with the reactor being supplied with effluent to be treated by a pipe 3 that empties into a separation means 4 between gas and liquid, with the liquid obtained from the separator being collected in a tank, and a plate 9 being arranged between the separation means 4 and the solid catalyst bed 2. The plate 9 consists of at least two closed boxes 10, with at least two vertical tubes 11 provided with openings 12 linking with the interiors of the boxes 10 passing through the boxes, and with the liquid distribution means 8 channeling the liquid from the tank into said boxes 10.
