REACTIVE SOLID/HEAT-TRANSPORT GAS REACTOR INCLUDING A HELICAL DUCT IN WHICH THE SOLID AND THE GAS FLOW IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS

摘要

A solid/heat-transport and reactive gas reactor, including: a helical duct including an inlet and an outlet, the helical duct defining a helical bottom track on which a solid reagent can slide from the inlet to the outlet of the helical duct; a mechanism for bringing the solid reagent to the inlet of the helical duct; a mechanism for causing a heat-transport gas to flow in the helical duct, from the outlet to the inlet of the helical duct; a reservoir of solid reagent under the outlet of the helical duct; and a conveyor for conveying the reagent from a low point of the reservoir to the bringing mechanism.
