Continuous hydrogenation system - capacity 20,000 lbs/hr. The continuous reactor is a vertical vessel with top entering multi stage agitator. Uses nickel catalyst and hydrogen to promote reaction. Major items include CHR Reactor 20,000 #/hr (carbon steel) , jacketed with cooling water on jacket MAWP shell 13.6 bar /FV at 260 C and jacket 11.4 bar /FV at 182C, deaerator, 2-stage steam ejector barometric vacuum system, 2 filter feed tanks, HydraShock filter, HydraShock surge tank, 2 catalyst supply tanks and system, finished product polish filter, spent catalyst tank, 6 heat exchangers, 9 pumps. Vessels are mounted on two steel structures assembled complete with all pumps, pipework, instrumentation and trucked in to be lifted intact into place. The HydraShock structure is 15 ft x 12 ft x 63 ft tall. The CHR structure is 16 ft x 12 ft x 49 ft tall. See photos. See links for schematic drawings of the system and a component list.
