A multi-bed catalytic converter (1) with inter-bed heat exchangers, comprising a plurality of superimposed catalytic beds and a common heat exchanger (5) which is shared between two or more consecutive catalytic beds, said common heat exchanger including heat exchange bodies such as a tube bundle (6), and a wall system (9, 10) to define a tube side and a shell side respectively, and the shell side comprising at least a first space (12) and a second space (13), wherein the first space (12) receives the product gas leaving the first of said consecutive beds, and the inter-cooled gas leaving said first space (12) is admitted in the second bed (3-3) for further conversion, and a sealing means (14) preventing a direct gas passage from said first space to said second space. |
