INLET SECTION FOR MICRO-REACTOR

摘要

Inlet section for providing a uniform flow distribution in a downstream reactor (14) which is connectable to the inlet section (10). The inlet section has an inlet diffuser (11) for receiving a fluid flow, an upstream passage (12) positioned downstream from the inlet diffuser (11), and a downstream passage (13) positioned downstream of the upstream passage (12). The upstream passage and downstream passage each comprise thick wall screens (12, 13). The upstream passage (12) has a first plurality (m) of elongated parallel upstream channels (15), and the downstream passage (13) has a second plurality (n) of elongated parallel downstream channels (16). The elongated upstream channels (15) are positioned at an angle of substantially 90 degrees with respect to the elongated downstream channels (16).
