GAS-COOLING DEVICE FOR AMMONIAC SYNTHESIS

摘要

Device for cooling gases deriving from ammonia synthesis. The device consists of pipes accommodated in an interior space. The space is subjected to a heat-absorption medium and surrounded by a cylindrical mantle. The pipes are secured in a pipe floor and communicate with a gas-intake chamber and a gas-outlet chamber. When an ammonia-production plant has several reactors, a single gas-cooling device has up to now been associated with each. The new device is intended to decrease the engineering expenses involved in cooling the gases in such plants. A gas-intake chamber and a gas-outlet chamber is positioned at each of the two opposite ends of the jacket. Straight pipes are associated with each chamber. The pipes are adjacent and the gas flows through them in opposite directions.
