    摘要: A product-lubricated multiphase pump for pumping a multiphase mixture containing hydrocarbon includes a separation system and a supply system. To achieve a good cooling and lubrication of pump elements without a lot of operating media and operating medium circuits, the separation system has a first separation stage for at least partly separating at least a portion of the multiphase mixture into a plurality of phase-enriched components and the supply system supplies a liquid-enriched liquid component as lubricant to a pump element to be lubricated.

    摘要: A structured packing element for a column for at least one of mass transfer and heat exchange between a heavy fluid phase and a light fluid phase. The structured packing element comprises at least two layers of a grid comprising openings that are surrounded and separated from each other by separating elements. At least two of the layers are arranged in a longitudinal direction parallel and in touching contact with each other such that an open space extending from one end to an opposite end of the layers is provided between the layers such that at least one of the heavy fluid phase and the light fluid phase may flow therethrough. An average width of at least 50% of the separating elements between adjacent openings is at least 15 times a layer material thickness and is between 70% and 125% of an average hydraulic diameter of the adjacent openings.

    摘要: A process for purifying a crude composition comprising rectifying the crude composition in a rectification plant. The rectification plant comprises a rectification column including: a first overhead condenser for condensing a head fraction, and a reboiler for evaporating a bottom fraction. A difference between a temperature of the head fraction and a temperature of the bottom fraction is less than or equal to 20° C. A heat pump is provided between the first overhead condenser and the reboiler. The heat pump is an indirect heat pump that is operated with water or methanol as a refrigerant, and the indirect heat pump includes an expansion valve and a compressor. The heat pump comprises a second condenser located upstream of the compressor.

    摘要: An impeller for a pump for conveying wastewater is proposed, includes a shroud to be rotated about an axis of rotation defining an axial direction, and a blade to convey the wastewater. The blade includes a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure side, a suction side and an upper rim. The blade extends from the shroud in the axial direction to the upper rim and extends in a circumferential direction from the leading edge to the trailing edge. The suction side is the radially inner surface of the blade and the pressure side is the radially outer surface of the blade. The blade includes a closed passage extending inside the blade. The passage has an inlet at the pressure side and an outlet at the suction side of the blade.

    摘要: A process of continuously manufacturing a poly(hydroxy acid) copolymer is provided. The process comprises copolymerizing at least two different monomers in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor system by ring-opening-polymerization. At least one of the monomers is a cyclic ester of hydroxy acid. A molar ratio of a total amount of the different monomers to a total amount of the at least one catalyst is more than 10,000. The reactor system comprises in series at least two polymerization reactors including a continuous stirred-tank reactor, a loop reactor or a plug flow reactor, one of the reactors comprising at least one of a mixer and a heat transfer element. The reactor system comprises at least two different feeding points through each of which a monomer composition is fed. A first monomer composition fed through one feeding point is different from a second monomer composition fed through another feeding point.

    摘要: A multistage pump for installation on a sea ground includes a common housing, a pump unit arranged in the common housing, a drive unit arranged in the common housing, and a coupling. The common housing includes a pump inlet and a pump outlet, the pump unit including a plurality of impellers to convey a compressible fluid from the pump inlet to the pump outlet, and a pump shaft, on which each impeller is mounted, each impeller being a radial or semi-axial impeller. The drive unit includes a drive shaft to drive the pump shaft, and an electric motor configured to rotate the drive shaft about an axial direction. The coupling couples the drive shaft to the pump shaft. The pump unit conveys the fluid in a dense phase at the pump outlet, and at least two impellers of the plurality of impellers have a different specific speed.
