Is it feasible to use falling film absorption to treat reaction off-gases and for cooling?
Thread Content
It is a three-phase oxidation reaction involving the oxidation by chlorine gas; cooling is required for this reaction. The jacket surrounding the reactor bottom is filled with a refrigerant to achieve cooling effects. The existing device at the top of the reactor is a packed tower. Could a falling film tube be used to form a heat exchanger, with the material flowing along the walls of the falling film tubes while cooling water flows in the shell side, thereby cooling the material and absorbing any excess chlorine gas generated during the reaction? Seeking landlords, experts out there.
I couldn’t tell whether it’s a tower or a reactor
Just add a falling film circulator to the reactor – will that work?
Cooling should be no problem; as for absorption, you’ll need to think about it further
Are there any manufacturers that specialize in equipment for this area? Could you recommend a few so I can get in touch with them?
I’m just in charge of design; I don’t have much to do with the manufacturers
Is this device used in production?
Your device is really uncommon; it’s not one of the standard devices, but it’s not entirely unheard of either. So you should consult a manufacturer of falling film heat exchangers
My previous company used falling-film graphite condensers to absorb hydrochloric acid gas, and it was necessary to determine the absorption efficiency of such devices. . .
