Abstract

The catalytic reactor plant is to work at high thermal reactor efficiencies and be of compact construction. It contains annular reaction chambers (26) which are arranged within a furnace (12). The heat for the reaction is supplied in part by hot furnace gas which, in countercurrent to the stream through the reaction chamber (26), flows within a narrow ring (48) which is arranged coaxially to, and in immediate contact with, the outer wall face (22) of the annular reaction chamber (26). In addition, regenerative heat is produced from the reaction products which leave the reaction chamber (26) and, in countercurrent to the stream through the reaction chamber (26), flow within a narrow ring (48) which is arranged coaxially to, and in immediate contact with, the inner wall (24) of the reaction chamber (26) and carries the reaction products which are essentially insulated from the heating effects of the hot gases within the furnace (12). A large number of reactors (20) can be accommodated in a compact furnace volume. <IMAGE>
