The present invention concerns a process for the synthesis of hydrocarbons from a feed comprising synthesis gas, in which a solid catalyst comprising cobalt is used in a three-phase reaction section operated such that said catalyst is maintained in suspension in a liquid phase by movement of a gas phase from the bottom to the top of said reaction section, said process comprising an external loop for separating waxes, characterized in that: 1) the theoretical ratio PH2O:PH2 in the external loop for separating waxes is determined using the following calculation: PH2O:PH2 theoretical=Cv/(R1−Rft×Cv) where Cv=(COinlet−COdegas)/COinlet R1=H2 inlet/COinlet Rft=(H2 inlet−H2 degas)/(COinlet−COdegas) 2) if the theoretical ratio PH2O:PH2 determined in step 1) has a value of Rthreshold or higher, the temperature in the degassing means for the external loop for separating waxes is reduced, 3) steps 1) to 2) are repeated until the theoretical ratio PH2O:PH2 has a value strictly less than Rthreshold, where Rthreshold is in the range 0.1 to 1.1.

Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to temperature control of a reactor using probability distribution of temperature measurements. In one embodiment, a method of controlling a temperature of a chemical reaction includes injecting a reactant stream into a reactor and through a catalyst bed of the reactor. The reactant stream includes a hydrocarbon and oxygen. Injection of the reactant stream into the catalyst bed causes an exothermic chemical reaction. The method further includes circulating a coolant through the reactor, thereby removing heat from the catalyst bed. The method further includes measuring temperature at a plurality of locations in the catalyst bed. The method further includes calculating a fraction of the catalyst bed greater than a predetermined maximum temperature limit using a probability distribution generated using the temperature measurements.

A graphite manufacturing apparatus includes a furnace body, an exhaust pipe, a waste oil tank and a suction pump. The exhaust pipe is connected to the furnace body and communicates with the furnace body to discharge a waste gas of the furnace body. The waste oil tank communicates with the exhaust pipe to absorb waste oil of the waste gas and to filter the waste oil. The suction pump is connected with the waste oil tank and communicates with the waste oil tank, the exhaust pipe and the furnace body so as to suck the waste gas of the furnace body to the waste oil tank and to discharge a gas filtered by the waste oil tank. The present invention can decrease the amount of the waste oil of the waste gas and prolongs the service life of the suction pump.

An improved system and method for generating graphene involves producing a plurality of ionized carbon atoms in a plasma generation chamber and providing the plurality of ionized carbon atoms to a graphene generation chamber having a magnetic structure. The graphene generation chamber generates graphene from said plurality of ionized carbon atoms over said magnetic structure such that said graphene floats over said magnetic structure due to said graphene being diamagnetic. The rate at which the plurality of ionized carbon atoms is produced is controlled to control the rate of graphene generation. The magnetic field of the magnetic structure can be controlled to control the rate at which the generated graphene moves through the graphene generation chamber until it exits as a recovered graphene product.

The invention relates to a process and an apparatus for product-conserving thermal dissociation of halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons, preferably for thermal dissociation of 1,2-dichloroethane to vinyl chloride. This uses chemical dissociation promoters and/or physical measures which initiate the dissociation reaction. The initiation of the dissociation reaction, with the same conversion, lowers the temperature level in the reaction mixture and the temperature of the dissociation gas on exit from the dissociation furnace. The amount and the exit temperature of the flue gas from the radiation zone of the dissociation furnace likewise decrease at the same time. It order to be able to implement the product-conserving mode of operation in the radiation zone of the dissociation furnace and simultaneously to maintain the function of the convection zone, the heat input to the dissociation furnace is divided such that a portion of the heat introduced by underfiring is introduced by burners in the radiation zone, and the other portion of the heat supplied by underfiring is introduced by burners arranged at the exit of the flue gas from the radiation zone.The partial decoupling of the heat input of the radiation zone and of the convection zone makes possible a particularly product-conserving mode of operation.
