  • Patent number: 4636375
    Abstract: A process for the production of furnace blacks of variable carbon black structure according to the customary furnace black technology is disclosed, whereby a low ratio is adjusted between combustion air and carbon black raw material for achieving high yields and large raw material through-puts, and wherein for lowering of the carbon black structure the carbon black produced is removed entirely or partly from the exhaust gases and the residual gas thus obtained is completely or partially recycled to the combustion chamber of the reactor.

  • Patent number: 4439401
    Abstract: Carbon black is produced in a flow reaction by spraying a hydrocarbon containing liquid feedstock with the aid of a propellant gas into a stream of hot reaction gases produced by burning a fuel, the feedstock-propellant gas-jet enters the reaction zone with a spraying angle that is greater than the spreading angle of a free jet. There is also described an apparatus for carrying out the process which comprises a binary injector supporting an atomizing nozzle whose head has several channels which are adjusted from zero degrees to different angles to the longitudinal axis of the nozzle.

  • Patent number: 4292291
    Abstract: There is set forth a process for the production of furnace black comprising spraying an oily carbon black forming material into a stream of hot combustion gases produced by reaction of fuel with reaction air, chilling and recovery of the carbon black by separation from the waste gases during which the reaction air is heated by means of waste gases. The waste gases are burned in a combustion apparatus by means of secondary air in order to heat the reaction air to a temperature between 600.degree. and 1,250.degree. C., preferably between 800.degree. and 1100.degree. C. and the thus heated reaction air is then introduced into the process.
