Abstract: A device for distributing a poly-phase mixture having a gas phase and liquid phase which mixture is in downflow mode through at least one bed of granular solid. The device has at least one tray (P) located above one of the beds of granular solid. It further has mixer conduits (21) for the liquid and gas phases, each conduit having an upper cross section for flow (22) allowing the passage of the majority of the gas phase, and a lower cross section for flow (23) allowing the mixture formed inside the conduits to communicate with a bed of granular solid. The mixer conduits (21) also having one or more lateral cross sections for flow (26) over at least a portion of their height to allow the passage of the liquid phase and possibly a minor portion of the gas phase inside the mixer conduits. The device also has a jet breaker type dispersive system (28) having a controlled porosity disposed below the lower cross section for flow (23) and above the bed of granular solids.

Abstract: A sub-assembly is described that ensures contact, material distribution and heat and/or material exchange of at least one gas phase, at least a portion of which is hydrogen, and at least one liquid phase, for a vessel containing at least one bed of granular solid, said phases being in overall downflow mode and traversing said bed of granular solid, said sub-assembly comprising at least one distributor tray (P) located above the bed of granular solid, comprising a plurality of downcomers (1) each surmounted by at least one jet disturber device and each having in its upper portion at least one cross section of flow (22) for entry of the major portion of said gas phase into said downcomer and, between said upper portion and the lower portion of said downcomer above tray (P), at least one cross section of flow (2) for entry of the major portion of said liquid phase into said downcomer, and in its lower portion at least one cross section of flow (23) of the mixture formed in the downcomer for distributing it over

Abstract: A device for distributing a poly-phase mixture in downflow mode over at least one bed of granular solid comprises: 1) at least one tray (P) located above one of said beds of granular solid; 2) a plurality of mixer conduits (21) for producing said poly-phase mixture, each of said conduits comprising at least one upper cross section for flow (22) that allows the passage of the majority of the gas phase, at least one lower cross section for flow (23) allowing the mixture formed inside said mixer conduits to communicate with a bed of granular solid, and said conduits being provided over at least a portion of their height with one or more lateral cross sections for flow (26), allowing passage of the liquid phase inside the mixer conduits, and possibly a minor portion of the gas phase; 3) an assembly of jet breaker type dispersive systems (28), each dispersive system possibly being associated with each mixer tube or common to a plurality of mixer tubes or even to all of the mixer tubes.
