  • Fluidizing nozzle and fluidized bed reactor
    Patent number: 11806683
    Abstract: A fluidizing nozzle for introducing fluid into a fluidized bed reactor and a fluidized bed reactor. The fluidizing nozzle includes a nozzle tube limiting at least a part of a feed channel in which fluid is configured to flow, at least one fluid discharge opening arranged near a downstream end of the nozzle tube, and a pot-like hood, which sealingly closes the nozzle tube with a hood cover of the pot-like hood at the downstream end of the nozzle tube at which said at least one fluid discharge opening is provided. The feed channel is provided with a flow restriction element defining at least one flow restriction feed channel upstream of said at least one fluid discharge opening.

  • Device and method for cooling or heating a fine-grained solid
    Patent number: 11697100
    Abstract: A device for cooling a fine-grained solid includes a fluidized bed cooler/heater in which the solid is fluidized with a fluidizing gas and thereby releases energy in the form of heat within the cooler/heater at least two cyclones which are connected in parallel. The cyclones are arranged such that after the fluidization of the solid the fluidizing gas passes through the cyclones so contained particles are removed.
