Abstract: A liquid/gas reactor comprises: a primary catalyst bed having an inlet and outlet end; means for supplying a primary feed stream to the inlet end; a secondary catalyst bed having an inlet and outlet end; means for supplying a secondary feed stream to the inlet end; means for collecting at least partially converted liquid product from the outlet end of the primary catalyst bed and recycling at least a portion of the liquid product to the inlet end of the primary catalyst bed and secondary catalyst bed; a separating wall between the primary catalyst bed and secondary catalyst bed; means for supplying a primary gas stream only to the inlet end of the primary catalyst bed; and means for supplying a secondary gas stream only to the inlet end of the secondary catalyst bed. A process for carrying out a gas/liquid reaction using the reactor is also disclosed.

Abstract: The track is elongate such that it extends along a longitudinal axis. The track comprises an alignment feature located at a predetermined alignment position along the longitudinal axis of the track. The alignment feature is configured to secure a partition support member at the alignment position when the partition support member is received by the track. The alignment feature comprises one of a projection or recess configured to engage with the other of a projection or recess of the partition support member.

Abstract: In various embodiments, the disclosed wireless sensors comprise chemically-sensitive conductor traces that respond to variations in the polymer surrounding the sensors due to the change in proximity of the chemicals stored within the polymer vessels (e.g., degradation of the structural integrity of the polymer vessel). The sensors may generally be installed at the interface between the corrosion barrier and the structural layers of a polymer vessel comprising any FRP, PTFE, plastic, or other polymers. As the chemical stored within the polymer vessel degrades or permeates the corrosion barrier, the impedance measured by the sensor, in one embodiment, changes, which signals a change in the structural integrity of the polymer in which the sensor is embedded.
