PROCESS FOR PREPARING CHLORINE DIOXIDE

摘要

Chlorine dioxide is prepared from at least two reactants that react together to form chlorine dioxide by bringing the reactants rapidly into intimate contact in a reaction zone and immediately educting the chlorine dioxide formed from the reaction zone into a diluting fluid by suction generated by flow of the diluting fluid through a venturi.
Rapid removal of the chlorine dioxide from the reaction zone and its simultaneous dilution prevent the build-up of potentially explosive amounts thereof and permit the use of aqueous solutions of reactants of more than 10% by weight strength.
