Description

Detailed Description of the Invention 3. Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an apparatus for producing a reaction product by a chemical reaction under high pressure.

(Prior Art) Various apparatuses, such as autoclave apparatuses, are used for producing reaction products by chemical reactions under conditions F of high pressure or ultra-high pressure.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in all such conventional high-pressure chemical reactions, J′1i! In order to withstand the high pressure generated inside, the outer structure of the device itself, its joints, pipes, hair, etc. must be protected from all pressure points. It needs to be made of high-strength material, and it also involves the danger of explosions such as In, so in order to ensure safety, the construction and operation management costs of the equipment are extremely expensive, which reduces production efficiency. was also influenced.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been proposed to solve the problems of the conventional art, and provides at least one method for producing a reaction product through a chemical reaction under high pressure. A water floating platform, a reaction tank disposed in water at a predetermined depth, and a material supply pipe and a reaction product extraction pipe connecting the water floating platform and the reaction tank, the reaction tank, the material supply pipe and A high-pressure chemical system that is configured to balance the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the reaction tank as much as possible by filling the reaction product extraction tube with a specified liquid such as water, and to ensure a specified high pressure within the reaction tank. It features a reactor.

·(Example) Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention, and the high-pressure chemical reaction apparatus according to the present embodiment includes a water floatation table 1 and a reaction tank 2.
, a material supply pipe 3 , a reaction product extraction pipe 4 , a heat exchanger 5 , and a heat transfer pipe 6 .

The water floating platform 1 floats in a stable state on the surface of water, such as the ocean, by a predetermined buoyancy means, while the reaction tank 2 is disposed underwater at a predetermined depth, and is a wooden floating platform. 1 and the reaction tank 2 are connected through the material supply pipe 3 and the reaction product extraction pipe 4.

Further, in this embodiment, the heat exchanger 5 is attached to the reaction tank 2, and the heat exchanger 5 and the water floating platform 1 are connected through a heat transfer pipe 6.

Therefore, the reaction tank 2, the material supply pipe 31, the reaction product extraction pipe, the heat exchanger 5, and the heat transfer pipe 6 are filled with a predetermined liquid such as water. Assuming that the water depth up to the installation position of No. 2 is H, when the prescribed liquid in L is water, water pressure PI corresponding to the water depth H is applied to the reaction tank 2 from inside and outside, and the test water a! If H is made deep enough, 1 reaction tank 2
Ultra-high pressure can be obtained inside.

Thus, the reaction material is fed into the reaction tank 2 from the water flotation platform 1 via the material supply pipe 3, and the reaction product ash that has completed the reaction in the reaction tank 2 is transferred to the reaction product extraction pipe 4. After that, it is collected on floating platform 1.

In addition, since it is equipped with a heat exchanger 5, if the reaction is one that generates heat, the excess heat after one reaction is heat exchanged.
The moat can be collected from the transfer pipe 6 to the floating platform 1 and used effectively.

On the other hand, in the case of the reaction, endothermic reaction, or reaction requiring heating, the heat generated on the floating platform 1 is sent to the heat exchanger 5 via the heat transfer pipe 6, and the reaction material is It is designed to allow heat exchange with the

Therefore, it can be used for various high-pressure chemical reactions, such as thermally decomposing biomass or the like in the reaction tank 2 or producing liquefied petroleum from coal and a predetermined compound.

As mentioned above, the pressure inside and outside the reaction tank 2 is balanced, so even though it can be used as an ultra-high-pressure reaction tank, the internal pressure of the reaction tank 2 is not as high as that of a conventional ground-mounted reaction tank. In order to withstand high pressure, it is no longer necessary to make the outer structure of the device itself, its joints, piping joints, and all other places where pressure is applied to a high-strength pressure-resistant structure.

Furthermore, workers can perform various operations on the floating platform 1, and since no high pressure is generated on the water, there is no risk of explosion or other accidents, and to ensure safety. Since there is no need to construct similar equipment, construction costs and operation and management costs can be made very low, and production efficiency can also be improved.

In addition, if the liquid to be filled in the reaction tank 2 etc. is something other than wood, there will be a slight pressure difference between the inside and outside due to the difference in specific gravity with the water on the outside, or even in this case, the above J1! ! Compared to an L-shaped reaction tank, the pressure-resistant structure is extremely light.

In addition, in Example L, an example was shown in which natural water such as the sea or a lake was used, but in another example, a pile was excavated in the soil, water was filled in the pile, and the above-mentioned reaction equipment was used. By arranging this, similar effects can be obtained.

Furthermore, the heat exchanger 5 and the heat transfer tube 6 may be omitted depending on one reaction condition, and various modifications are possible without being limited to the embodiment described in L without departing from the gist of the present invention. Needless to say, he is a messenger.

(Effects of the Invention) The present invention is configured as described above, and is configured to obtain high pressure by utilizing the natural water head difference, so there is no need for multiple pressure-resistant structures, and safety can be ensured. , which is extremely useful from an economic point of view.
