<p>The present invention relates to an apparatus for introducing a predetermined volume of suspension into a reactor from a storage vessel. According to the invention the storage vessel 1 is connected via a first conduit 4 to an intermediate vessel 2 which is in turn connected to a feed vessel 3 via a second conduit 2, the feed vessel 3 is connected via a third conduit 8 to the reactor 11, each of the first, second and third conduits 4, 6, 8 , is provided with a shut-off valve 5, 7, 9, the vessels, conduits and valves being so arranged that the suspension can be transferred by gravity from the storage vessel 1 to the intermediate vessel 2 and from the intermediate vessel 2 to the feed vessel 3 and can be transferred from the feed vessel 3 to the reactor 11 by gravity and/or the effect of pressure difference between the feed vessel 3 and the reactor 11. The present invention also relates to a process for introducing a predetermined volume of suspension into a reactor using the apparatus. <IMAGE></p> |
