Abstract: It is an object of the invention to specify an electrically heatable reactor for hydrogen cyanide production and the production of other nitriles that enables a differentiated temperature profile and requires no more than inexpensive standard components. The core of the inventive apparatus (0) is a chamber (1) made of gas-permeable, thermally insulating material that constitutes the actual reaction space. Electrical heating elements (5) project into the chamber (1), such that the chamber (1) can be heated from the inside by the heating elements (5). The electrical terminals of the heating elements are outside the reaction space but within the surrounding shell. Unlike in the industrially implemented BMA process, the heat is thus not transported into the reaction space from the outside, but rather generated in the reaction space. The heat is generated by conversion of electrical energy by means of the heating elements (5) by the principle of resistance heating.

Abstract: A method and machine for cutting and removing a workpiece part from a plate-shaped material includes cutting the workpiece part with a beam or jet directed onto the material and separating the workpiece part and material. The workpiece part is removed as a scrap skeleton removal part. The cut-free workpiece part is lifted out of a workpiece supporting plane by a lifting device and removed by a gripping device, or the cut-free workpiece part is removed downwards from the plane through a gap between workpiece supporting surfaces by an ejection device, or gravity removes the cut-free workpiece part downwards through the gap. Before cutting the workpiece part free, a sacrificial part adjoining the workpiece part and partially having a common cutting line with the workpiece part is cut free from the material before cutting the workpiece part free in the material or scrap skeleton.

Abstract: The invention relates to catalytically active heating elements, and to the production and use thereof in the production of hydrogen cyanide (HCN). The problem addressed by the invention is that of providing thermally stable and catalytically active heating elements with which a BMA process can be simultaneously electrically heated and chemically catalysed. In particular, the heating elements should be thermally and mechanically stable in continuous industrial operation and retain their catalytic activity. The heating element according to the invention has a layered structure (A, B, C) formed from (A) silicon carbide (SiC), (B) aluminium nitride (AlN) and (C) platinum (Pt). The silicon carbide (SiC) serves as an electric heating resistor. The platinum (Pt) serves as catalyst. Aluminium nitride (AIN) is arranged as a protective layer between platinum (Pt) and silicon carbide (SiC). It prevents platinum (Pt) and silicon carbide (SiC) from alloying during ongoing operation.
