A METHOD FOR ALKYL OXYGENATE (E.G., METHANOL) MANUFACTURE VIA PARTIAL OXIDATION OF ALKANE (METHANE) USES AN INJECTIVELY-MIXED BACKMIXING REACTION CHAMBER IN FLUID COMMUNICATION WITH A TUBULAR-FLOW REACTOR. ALKYL FREE RADICALS ARE INDUCED IN THE BACKMIXING REACTION CHAMBER PRIOR TO BEING FED THROUGH A FLOW-RESTRICTION BAFFLE TO THE TUBULAR-FLOW REACTOR. INJECTIVE INTERMIXING OF FEED STREAMS AGITATES THE BACKMIXING REACTION CHAMBER. IN ONE EMBODIMENT, A VARIABLE POSITION FLOW RESTRICTION BAFFLE IS AXIALLY MOVED TO COMMENSURATELY MODIFY THE BACKMIXING REACTION CHAMBER AND TUBULAR- FLOW REACTOR VOLUMES. IN ANOTHER EMBODIMENT, THE TUBULAR-FLOW REACTOR IS QUENCHED WITH A VARIABLE POSITION QUENCHING INPUT. THE METHOD FURTHER PROVIDES FOR CONDENSING THE OUTPUT STREAM FROM THE REACTION SYSTEM IN A CONDENSING SCRUBBER AND ALSO FOR RECYCLING A PORTION OF THE SCRUBBED OUTPUT STREAM TO THE REACTOR SYSTEM. |
