Fluidizing apparatus

摘要

An improved fluidizing apparatus includes a gas distribution plate which is supported by support means located below the level of the gas distribution plate. The support means comprises beam members extending across the interior of the vessel and a number of rods standing upright on the beam members, with the gas distribution plate placed on the uppermost ends of the rods. The support means can also include annular members made integral with the beam members and/or a projection or projections projecting inward from the inner wall surface of the vessel. A number of rods can stand upright on the annular members.
