METHOD FOR SAFE OPERATION OF GAS-PHASE PARTIAL OXIDATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To permit concentration measurement of especially those substances of a feed gas mixture for a partial oxidation which are relevant with regard to safety in respect of ignition basically with such a high accuracy that this measurement does not show a limiting element with regard to a safely useable composition range of feed gas, and at the same time to dispense with an expensive method limited with regard to feasibility in terms of safety.SOLUTION: This invention relates to a method for safe operation of a continuously operated heterogeneously catalyzed gas-phase partial oxidation of an organic compound in a reactor, the composition of the feed gas mixture being controlled by pressure-controlled concentration determination of relevant constituents.
