  • Method for diluting and/or ejecting clouds of flammable gases
    Patent number: 9561392
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a gas or liquid-jet curtain generated by spraying non-flammable gases or liquids for diluting and/or ejecting clouds of flammable gases, the density of which does not exceed the density of air, from containments that have one or more outer openings, and also to a method for diluting and/or ejecting clouds of flammable gases, the density of which does not exceed the density of air, from containments that have one or more outer openings, wherein, by spraying non-flammable gases or liquids at at least one outer opening, a gas or liquid-jet curtain is generated that dilutes the clouds of flammable gases situated in the containment or bears them in the direction of the at least one outer opening and thus ejects them.

  • Method for producing isocyanate
    Patent number: 8957245
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing an isocyanate, which involves contacting fluid streams of amine, phosgene and inert medium in at least one mixing device, such that an inert medium stream is metered at least between one amine stream and one phosgene stream within the mixing device, and then reacting an amine with phosgene in a reaction chamber to form an isocyanate. In this process the inert medium stream is metered such that a point of first contact of the amine and the phosgene occurs at a distance from a surface of the mixing device, and a turbulent flow is present in the reaction chamber.

  • Process and apparatus for thermal partial oxidation of hydrocarbons
    Patent number: 8801814
    Abstract: A process for partial oxidation of hydrocarbons in a reactor, in which a stream comprising the hydrocarbon and a stream comprising the oxygen are fed to the reactor, wherein both streams fed to the reactor are conducted within the reactor separately through in each case one or more spatially separate lines, these lines having turbulence generators in their interior, owing to which, as a result of the imposed deflection of the flow direction downstream of turbulence generators, a highly turbulent flow field forms, and the streams are then mixed in a mixing zone after exiting from the lines and then converted in a reaction zone.
