    摘要: A roller mill for comminuting bulk material may include a first grinding roller and a second grinding roller that are arranged opposite one another and can be driven in opposite directions. A grinding gap exists between the grinding rollers. A floating bearing unit may be configured to receive the first grinding roller, and a fixed bearing unit may be configured to receive the second grinding roller. The floating bearing unit includes two bearings, each of which receives one end of the first grinding roller. Hydraulic actuators are mounted on the floating bearing unit for applying a force to the floating bearing unit. The bearings of the floating bearing unit are connected to one another via a synchronization device that includes a coupling element, which in a coupling position prevents a relative movement of the bearings and in a free position permits a relative movement of the bearings.

    摘要: An absorption tower for production of nitric acid by the Ostwald process may include sieve trays that are arranged on top of one another and each spaced apart from one another, a water inlet in an upper region of the absorption tower, an inlet for gaseous nitrogen oxides in a lower region of the absorption tower, and a column bottom that is disposed in the lower region of the absorption tower beneath a lowermost sieve tray and is divided by a dividing wall into a first, radially inner region and at least a second, radially outer region. Nitric acid that trickles down from the lowermost sieve tray with a higher concentration can be collected in a middle region. The less-concentrated nitric acid that then effluxes from sieve trays higher up can then be collected separately in a region farther outward.

    摘要: A process for producing nitric acid by the Ostwald process involves reacting ammonia with atmospheric oxygen as primary air to afford a NOx-containing gas stream in an ammonia oxidation reactor at a first pressure and absorbing the NOx-containing gas stream in water in an absorption apparatus at a higher, second pressure. Nitric acid is bleached with bleach air as secondary air at approximately the first pressure. The secondary air is brought to an operating pressure of the bleaching operation via a separate secondary air compressor or compressor stage. The separate secondary air compressor is independent of the compressor that brings the primary air to the first pressure. Compression to the second higher pressure at which the absorption of the NOx gases is performed in the absorption apparatus is provided only downstream of the bleaching operation.

    摘要: A stirred ball mill may include a milling jar, at least three agitator shafts, and a drive. The milling jar may be arranged in a main direction and may have a milling chamber that is adapted to receive milling material and milling aid elements. Each of the at least three agitator shafts has a center axis that is arranged parallel to the main direction of the milling jar and is configured as a screw that is mounted fixedly to a frame in the milling jar such that each agitator shaft is rotatable about its center axis. The drive is configured to rotate the agitator shafts about their respective center axes without any contact between the agitator shafts. The center axes of the agitator shafts may be arranged as side edges of a prism.

    摘要: A process for producing alkoxylates features a high growth ratio without the need of interim storage of a pre-polymer produced in a first reactor. The process may involve reacting a monomeric educt in the presence of a catalyst and a starting material in a first reactor equipped with a first circulation loop and thereafter passing a pre-polymer that is produced of the first circulation loop to a second reactor equipped with a second circulation loop, where a desired polymer is produced. The first reactor may comprise a smaller volume than the second reactor. The growth ratio, defined as a final batch volume of the second reactor divided by a minimum initial volume of the starting material in the first reactor, is at least 80:1.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method for preparing vinyl chloride by catalytic thermal cracking of 1,2-dichloroethane, in which method the heat required for the thermal cracking is supplied via a liquid or condensing heat transfer medium, wherein, the heat transfer medium is heated at least in part by means of waste heat from a plant for combusting liquid and/or gaseous residues of a chemical plant. The invention also relates to a plant for preparing vinyl chloride by catalytic thermal cracking of 1,2-dichloroethane. The heat required for thermal cracking can be obtained from cheaply available waste heat. For example, it is possible to temporarily heat the heat transfer medium exclusively by means of the second heating device operated by waste heat, wherein said waste heat can, for example, be waste heat from a plant for preparing vinyl chloride.

    摘要: A method for the synthesis of methanol, wherein a carbonaceous energy source flow is supplied to a synthesis gas reactor arrangement for obtaining a synthesis gas flow having hydrogen and carbon oxides, wherein the synthesis gas flow is supplied to a thermal recovery apparatus for recovering heat from the synthesis gas flow and then to a synthesis gas compressor for pressure increase. The synthesis gas flow is supplied at least in part to a first reactor stage of a methanol reactor arrangement for partial conversion to methanol, a residual gas flow having unreacted carbon oxides being obtained from the methanol reactor arrangement, which residual gas flow is supplied to a recycling compressor for increasing its pressure, the pressure-increased gas flow being supplied to the methanol reactor arrangement for partial conversion to methanol, a recovery flow from an unreacted residual gas being supplied to the first reactor stage of a hydrogen recovery arrangement to obtain a H-recycling flow.
