  • Multi-structured reactor made of monolithic adjacent thermoconductive bodies for chemical processes with a high heat exchange
    Patent number: 10011776
    Abstract: A multi-structured tubular element for producing a reactor for effecting exothermic/endothermic chemical reactions, comprises two or more monolithic thermoconductive bodies, assembled together so that each has a part of the side surface interfaced with the side surface of one or more monolithic thermoconductive bodies adjacent thereto, so as to form as a whole, a honeycomb structure containing a plurality of longitudinal channels extending from one end to the other of said tubular element, suitable for being filled with a granular catalytic solid.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 27, 2013
    Date of Patent: July 3, 2018
    Assignee: Eni S.p.A.

  • Modular reactor for exothermic/endothermic chemical reactions
    Patent number: 8092747
    Abstract: Modular reactor for exothermic/endothermic chemical reactions which take place in three-phase systems, comprising a series of modules, superimposed with respect to each other, fixed to each other by means of coupling flanges, each module consisting of an external cylindrical body and a series of tube bundles, for the circulation of a thermal-exchange fluid, positioned inside said body.
