  • Reactor system for the production of chlorine by catalytic gas phase oxidation of hydrogen chloride with oxygen by the method according to the invention.
  • the catalysts used initially for the Deacon process for example supported catalysts with the active composition CuCl 2 , had only a low activity.
  • Catalyst components also occur when using more active ruthenium chloride / oxide.
  • the oxidation of hydrogen chloride to chlorine is also a
  • the catalyst is used in the form of a fluidized, thermally stabilized bed.
  • the catalyst bed is tempered via the outer wall, and according to DE 10 2004 006 610 A1, the fluidized bed is heated by means of a heat exchanger arranged in the bed.
  • the effective heat removal of this process faces problems of non-uniform residence time distribution and catalyst wear, both of which result in a loss of revenue.
  • Tube bundle reactors which require a complex to be controlled cooling.
  • all described tube bundle reactors are very complex and cause high
  • the object of the present invention is to provide such a method.
  • it has set itself the task of providing a process for the production of chlorine by catalytic gas phase oxidation of hydrogen chloride with oxygen, wherein in a reactor, the process gas mixture in at least two separate reaction zones under adiabatic conditions of catalyst beds and reacts where the emerging from at least one reaction zone process gas mixture is then passed through a heat exchanger downstream of the respective reaction zone.
  • the object is achieved in that the heat exchanger comprises plates stacked on each other and interconnected, the individual plates having at least two separate fluid flow channels according to a predetermined pattern and the plates provided with fluid flow channels arranged such that the process gas mixture in a first Strömungswegraum and the heat exchange medium used in the heat exchanger in a second Strömungswegides flow through the heat exchanger.
  • a reactor is to be understood as the overall plant into which the educts hydrogen chloride and oxygen are introduced, react with each other and the
  • the reactant hydrogen chloride can originate, for example, from the reaction of amines with phosgene for the synthesis of isocyanates.
  • the Reactor comprises reaction zones which represent spatially separated regions in which the desired reaction takes place. Due to the corrosive reaction gases, the reactor is preferably constructed of stainless steel such as 1.4571 or 1.4828 or nickel 2.4068 or nickel base alloys such as 2.4610, 2.4856 or 2.4617, Inconel or Hastelloy.
  • the reaction zones contain catalyst beds.
  • Catalyst bed is understood here to mean an arrangement of the catalyst in all known forms, for example a fixed bed, a fluidized bed or a fluidized bed. Preferred is a fixed bed arrangement. This comprises a catalyst bed in the true sense, ie loose, supported or unsupported catalyst in any form and in the form of suitable packings.
  • catalyst bed as used herein also encompasses contiguous areas of suitable packages on a support material or structured catalyst supports. These would be, for example, to be coated ceramic honeycomb carrier with comparatively high geometric surfaces or corrugated layers of metal wire mesh on which, for example, catalyst granules is immobilized.
  • the heat exchanger is constructed so that it can be described as a succession of stacked and interconnected plates.
  • the plates can be positively or materially connected to each other.
  • An example of a cohesive connection is welding or diffusion bonding.
  • fluid flow channels are incorporated, through which a fluid from one side of a plate to the other side, for example to the opposite side, can flow.
  • the channels can be linear, thus forming the shortest possible path. However, they can also form a longer path by being laid out according to a wavy, meandering or zigzag pattern.
  • the cross-sectional profile of the channels may, for example, be semicircular, elliptical, square, rectangular, trapezoidal or triangular. Having at least two separate fluid flow channels per plate means that these channels pass over the plate and the fluid flowing therein can not change between the channels.
  • the flow path direction may be defined by the vector between the plane in which the starting points of the fluid flow channels lie and the plane in which the end points of the fluid flow channels of a plate or plate stack lie. It thus indicates the general direction of the flow of the fluid through the heat exchanger.
  • a first flow path direction refers to the direction in which the process gas mixture flows through the heat exchanger or, in continuation, through the reaction zone.
  • a second flow path direction designates the path of the heat exchange medium. This can flow, for example, in cocurrent, countercurrent or crossflow to the process gas mixture.
  • the heat exchanger works so effectively that the temperature of the process gas mixture on entering the catalyst bed of the next reaction zone, even when the reaction starts, does not lead to a local overheating of the catalyst.
  • a flow rate expressed in terms of annual tons of chlorine gas produced, of> 100 to ⁇ 400,000, from> 1000 to ⁇ 300,000 or from> 10,000 to ⁇ 200,000 can be achieved.
  • an effective temperature control of the Deacon process is achieved, so that the formation of uncontrolled zones with elevated temperature, the so-called hot spots, in particular in the entrance area of the catalyst bed can be avoided.
  • This enables service lives of the catalyst which, expressed in years, can be from> 1 to ⁇ 10, from> 2 to ⁇ 6 or from> 3 to ⁇ 4.
  • the catalyst bed is formed as a structured packing. In a further embodiment of the present invention is the
  • structured catalysts such as monoliths, structured packings, but also Shell catalysts primarily have a reduction in the pressure loss to the advantage.
  • a further advantage of the use of structured catalysts is that shorter diffusion paths of the reactants are necessary in the thinner catalyst layers, which can be accompanied by an increase in the catalyst selectivity.
  • fluid flow channels may be incorporated, wherein the hydraulic diameter of the fluid flow channels is> 0.1 mm to ⁇ 10 mm, preferably> 0.3 mm to ⁇ 5 mm, more preferably> 0.5 mm to ⁇ 2 mm.
  • the specific surface area of the catalyst increases as the hydraulic diameter decreases. If the diameter is too small, too much pressure loss occurs. Furthermore, in the case of an impregnation with a catalyst suspension, a channel can also clog.
  • the hydraulic diameter of the fluid flow channels in the heat exchanger is> 10 ⁇ m to ⁇ 10 mm, preferably> 100 ⁇ m to ⁇ 5 mm, more preferably> 1 mm to ⁇ 2 mm. With these diameters, an effective heat exchange is particularly ensured.
  • the process comprises> 6 to ⁇ 50, preferably> 10 to ⁇ 40, more preferably> 20 to ⁇ 30 reaction zones.
  • the use of materials can be optimized with regard to the conversion of HCl gas.
  • a smaller number of reaction zones would result in an unfavorable temperature control.
  • the inlet temperature would have to be set lower, which would make the catalyst less active.
  • Especially the handling of the highly corrosive gases HCl, O 2 and Cl 2 requires resistant and correspondingly expensive materials for the reactor.
  • hydrogen chloride and oxygen are simultaneously fed to the reactor.
  • This can mean mixing in a prechamber without a catalyst bed or simultaneously introducing the gases into the first reaction zone.
  • This has the advantage that the entire feed gas stream can be used for the absorption and removal of the heat of reaction in all catalyst beds. Furthermore, it is possible to direct the gases in an upstream heat exchanger to heat them. With the method according to the invention, a simplified apparatus of the reactor is also possible. The elimination of additional piping allows better temperature control. In general, it is also possible that the waste heat of the previous reaction stages is used to heat the process gas mixture before the next reaction zone.
  • the length of at least one reaction zone is> 0.01 m to ⁇ 5 m, preferably> 0.03 m to ⁇ 1 m, more preferably> 0.05 m to ⁇ 0.5 m.
  • the length here is to be understood as the length of the reaction zones in the flow direction of the process gas mixture.
  • the reaction zones can all be the same length or different in length.
  • the early reaction zones may be short, as there are sufficient starting materials available and excessive heating of the reaction zone should be avoided.
  • the late reaction zones can then be long to increase the overall conversion of the process, with less fear of overheating the reaction zone.
  • the stated lengths themselves have proven to be advantageous because at shorter lengths, the reaction can not proceed with the desired conversion and increases at greater lengths, the flow resistance to the process gas mixture too strong. Furthermore, the catalyst exchange is difficult to carry out at longer lengths.

  • the particle size may correspond to the diameter in the case of approximately spherical catalyst particles or, in the case of approximately cylindrical catalyst particles, to the extent in the longitudinal direction.
  • the mentioned particle size ranges have been found to be advantageous since with smaller particle sizes, a high pressure loss occurs and with larger particles, the usable particle surface decreases in proportion to the particle volume and thus the achievable space-time yield is lower.

  • This can be set, for example, via the control of the heat exchangers connected between the catalyst beds. It means that the temperature of catalyst bed to catalyst bed can be both increased and decreased within a sequence of catalyst beds. Thus, it may be particularly advantageous to first increase the average temperature from catalyst bed to catalyst bed to increase the catalyst activity, and then to lower the average temperature in the following last catalyst beds again to shift the equilibrium. On the other hand, it may be advantageous to operate the successively connected reaction zones at an increasing average temperature. Thus, the reaction of the reactants initially with a greater safety margin be performed to the desired upper temperature limit. In the later stages of implementation, when there are fewer starting materials, the implementation can be continued by increasing the average temperature.
