a center pipe for feedstock;
a second pipe, surrounding the center pipe;
a third pipe, surrounding the second pipe;
and a plurality (preferably three) of 'fuel-oil pipes disdosed within the annulus between the second and third plpes;
the ends of each of these fuel-oil pipes being equipped with a spray nozzle inclined at an angle with respect to the axis of the center pipe. These fuel-oil pipes are for the introduction of combustion fuel into the reactor. preferably, the assembly also includes a substantially cone-shaped iiameholder device mounted concentrically about the third pipe at the end thereof, such cone flaring outwardly toward the interior of the reactor, such cone being comprised of a plurality of vanes or louvers each of which is twisted at the outer ends thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the invention This invention relates to the production of carbon black by the injection of a suitable hydrocarbon feedstock into an elongate reactor or combustion chamber containing high-temperature llames and gases, and more particularly to a burner and feedstock injection assembly for burning a normally liquid hydrocarbon as fuel to provide the heat necessary for the pyrolysis of the feedstock to form carbon black. Such assembly also includes means for supplying the feedstock to the reactor.
In many instances gas is used as a fuel to the burner; however, in situations where gas is not available, or is not available at an economical price, it is desirable to have a burner which is designed for the use of a normally liquid hydrocarbon fuel. The main object of this invention is to provide a burner which will operate satisfactorily on a normally liquid fuel rather than gas.
Description of the prior art Applicants do not claim that oil (rather than gas) burners for carbon black reactors are novel per se. The following patents disclose specific fuel-oil burner injection systems designed for specific carbon black reactors: 3,003,854; 3,060,003; 3,290,120; and 3,501,274. U.S. Pat. No. 3,443,761 discloses certain of the features of the present invention; however, it can readily be seen that the assembly of that patent is different and is suitable only for use with a gaseous fuel.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention is a burner and feedstock injection assembly for an elongate substantially tubular carbon black reactor comprising:
a center pipe for introduction of feedstock into the reactor, one end of said pipe terminating within the reactor and being equipped with a spray nozzle;
a second pipe, concentrically disposed about the center ICC pipe, one end of the second pipe terminating approximately ilush with the end of the center pipe within the reactor;
a third pipe, concentrically disposed about the second pipe, one end of the third pipe terminating within the reactor at a point upstream of the end of the center P1116;
a plurality of fuel-oil pipes disposed within the annulus between the second and third pipes and axially parallel to said pipes, said fuel-oil pipes terminating at a point within the reactor downstream of the end of the third pipe but upstream of the end of the center pipe, the ends of said fuel-oil pipes being connected with a plurality of spray nozzles each of which is inclined at an angle of about 15 45 from the axis of the center Plpe;
means for. supplying carbon black feedstock to the center pipe;
means for supplying cooling medium to the annulus between the first and second pipes;
means for supplying a normally liquid hydrocarbon fuel to the fuel-oil pipes;
means for introducing a stream of process air into said reactor; and
means for directing said stream of process air downstream along the outside of the third pipe.
Preferably, the assembly also includes a ilameholder or air distribution device comprising a substantially coneshaped device mounted concentrically about the third pipe at the end of said third pipe, said cone flaring outwardly toward the interior of the reactor at an angle of about 5-30 (preferably 10-25) from the vertical, said device being comprised of a plurality of vanes or louvers each twisted at the outer end thereof to an angle of about 10-25 Desirably, the assembly also includes means for supplying air to the annulus between the second and third pipes, together with an annular passageway between the outer circumference of the second pipe and the nozzle ends of the fuel-oil pipes connecting such annulus with the interior portion of the reactor.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to FIG. l, burner and feedstock injection assembly 1 will first be described. The feedstock line is center pipe 2 which is slideably mounted within axial pipe 3 and sealed therefrom by means of suitable packing glands included within closure member 4. Center pipe 2 is provided with guides (as shown) for proper positioning within axial pipe 3. The downstream end of center pipe 2 is provided with a suitable spray nozzle 5, which can be any conventional commercially available nozzle, preferably of the hollow cone type.

The tip of nozzle 5 terminates in approximate ush relationship with axial pipe 3.
Axial pipe 3 is slideably mounted within the assembly 1 by means of closure member 7 equipped with packing glands as shown.
As suggested above, the ow of air through axial pipe tread grades of black; whereas, FIG. 4 is designed for the production of carcass grades.
Referring to FIG. 3, preheated air passes through annulus 23 formed by shell 24 and inner tube 25. Portions in order to adjust the properties (particularly modulus and structure) of the carbon black.
Although the specic design of the elongate tubular carbon black ,reactor is not critical to the practice of this invention, we prefer the design shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.
