Claim 1
Independent Claim
126 words
A METHOD OF CONDUCTING A CHEMICAL REACTION BETWEEN AT LEAST TWO REACTANTS COMPRISING THE STEPS OF ESTABLISHING A CLOSED CYCLIC FLOWING STREAM OF REACTION PRODUCT AXIALLY OF A CIRCULATING TUBE, THE STREAM PASSING CENTRALLY OF SAID TUBE AND THEN AROUND ITS EXTERIOR SURFACE, FLOWING A FIRST ONE OF SAID REACTANTS INTO SAID STREAM, SUBJECTING THE FIRST REAGENT-RICH STREAM TO THOROUGH MECHANICAL MIXING, FLOWING A SECOND ONE OF SAID REACTANTS INTO SAID FIRST REAGENT-RICH AND MIXED STREAM, SUBJECTING THE FIRST AND SECOND REAGENT-RICH STREAM TO THOROUGH MECHANICAL MIXING AND SUBDIVIDING THE STREAM INTO A PLURALITY OF HIGH SURFACE EXPOSURE JETS IN A ZONE OF LOW PRESSURE TO HEAT TRANSFER THE STREAM AND FLASH OFF ANY VOLATILES THEREFROM DURING ITS CYCLIC CLOSED FLOW AXIAL OF SAID CIRCULATING TUBE.
