Abstract

The solution relates to a glass tube reactor for the production of sodium hypochlorite, which consists of horizontally arranged glass tubes interconnected in series or series-parallel, equipped with a liquid phase inlet, a gas phase inlet and a discharge opening in the lower part.

Description

The present invention relates to a glass tubular reactor for the production of sodium hypochlorite.

It is known that a device made of low-profile and costly titanium material is suitable for the production of sodium hypochlorite in the reaction process environment. Particularly suitable for the technological process is rubber or porcelain equipment. Both of these devices have a limited lifetime, are faulty and inefficient. Also used is a device made of vertically adjacent glass tubes, which are attached by a complicated teflon seal in a steel-coated rubberized jacket. This device does not guarantee the contact of the components during the reaction, as a result of which the gas phase may escape uncontrolled through some tubes, resulting in loss of raw materials. This device is disproportionately costly and failing due to the acquisition value and the power achieved.

The above-mentioned drawbacks are overcome by the glass tubular reactor for the production of sodium hypochlorite according to the invention, which consists of horizontally arranged glass tubes connected in series or in parallel to each other, provided with a liquid phase inlet, a gas phase inlet and a discharge opening at the bottom.

The advantage of a glass tubular reactor for the production of sodium hypochlorite lies primarily in the possibility of using mass-produced glass tubes, fittings and joint gaskets, thereby significantly reducing investment costs - up to 50% while achieving the same production performance compared to vertically placed glass tubes.

The simple design of the glass tubular reactor allows the reactor to be constructed to any desired capacity for producing sodium hypochlorite in a single closed system.

Another advantage of the glass tube reactor according to the invention is that all sealing joints are easy to assemble. The individual tubes are easily removable and can be replaced without the use of mechanisms, which is of positive importance for the maintenance of the equipment. The reaction process in this reactor can be visually monitored. Liquid and gaseous contact is guaranteed; the environment in the reaction process is perfectly clean.

A glass tubular reactor for producing sodium hypochlorite is shown in the attached figure. It consists of glass tubes 1 which are arranged horizontally and are connected in series or series-parallel interconnections, provided with a liquid phase inlet 2, a gas phase inlet 3, a chlorine inlet side inlet 6 and a discharge opening at the bottom.

The liquid phase is supplied to the glass tube reactor by supplying 2 of the liquid phase (via a line) from the reservoir 7 by means of a pump 8, similarly the gas component is supplied by supplying the gas phase 3. The heat generated by the exothermic reaction is removed by the cooling medium 4. The gas phase is sucked off by the fan 5 after the reaction. The reaction mixture is discharged from the glass tube reactor through a discharge opening to a storage tank.

7th

With such a configuration of the sodium hypochlorite production station, an hourly output, based on the volume of the medium in the reactor tubes, achieves up to 150 kg of final product per 100 liters of reaction volume.
