    Technical domain
    [001] The present invention applies to the field of reactions in the field of exothermic reactions and, more particularly, to the hydrotreatment, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodesnitrogenation, hydrocracking, hydrogenation, hydrodoxygenation or hydrodesarmatization reactions carried out in a reactor in fixed layer. The invention relates more particularly to a device for mixing and distributing fluids in a reactor with flow downstream and its use for carrying out exothermic reactions. State of the art
    [002] The exothermic reactions carried out, for example, in refining and / or in petrochemicals, need to be cooled by an additional fluid, called tempering fluid, to avoid thermal packaging of the catalytic reactor, in which they are carried out. The catalytic reactors used for these reactions generally comprise at least one layer of solid catalyst. The exothermic nature of the reactions needs to maintain a homogeneous temperature gradient in the middle of the reactor, in order to avoid the existence of hot spots in the catalyst layer comprised in the reactor. Very hot zones can prematurely decrease catalyst activity and / or lead to non-selective reactions and / or lead to thermal packaging. It is, therefore, important to have at least one mixing chamber in a reactor, located between two layers of catalyst, which allows a homogeneous distribution in temperature of the fluids over a reactor section and a cooling of the reaction fluids to a desired temperature.
    [003] In order to carry out this homogenization, the technician is often led to use a specific arrangement of internals, which are often complex, with an introduction of the immersion fluid as homogeneous as possible in the reactor section. For example, document FR 2 824 495 A1 describes a tempering device, allowing to ensure an efficient exchange between the tempering fluids or fluids and the process fluids or fluids. This device is integrated into a compartment and comprises a quenching fluid injection rod, a fluid collection column, the quenching box itself, operating the mixture between the quenching fluid and downward flow, and a distribution system composed of a perforated tub and a distribution plate. The tempering box has a deflector that ensures the swirling of the fluids, in a direction that is substantially non-radial and not parallel to the axis of that compartment and downstream of the deflector, in the direction of circulation of the reaction fluid, at least one passage section outlet of the fluid mixture formed in the box. This device allows to prevent certain inconveniences of the different systems of the prior art, but remains bulky.
    [004] To prevent the volume problem, a fluid mixing device in a downward flowing reactor was developed, and is described in FR 2 952 835 A1. This device comprises a horizontal collection medium provided with a vertical collection line to receive fluids, an injection medium placed in the collection line and an annular mixing chamber of circular section located downstream of the collection medium in the direction of circulation of the fluids. The mixing chamber comprises an inlet end connected to the collection line and an outlet end, allowing the passage of fluids, as well as a horizontal pre-distribution plate comprising at least one chimney. The advantage of this device is that it is more compact than the one previously described, and allows to ensure a good mixture of fluids and good homogeneity in temperature.
    [005] One purpose of the invention is to propose a mixing device and a distribution device for light bulky fluids, when they are placed in a catalytic reactor. Another purpose of the present invention is to propose a mixing and dispensing device that has good fluid mixing efficiency and has good temperature homogeneity, and good distribution.
    [006] The applicant developed a combined fluid mixing and distribution device, allowing to significantly reduce the space dedicated to the mixing and distribution of fluids, notably in a downward flow reactor. Objects of the invention

The arrows represent the fluid flow directions from the exchange compartment in the distribution zone (C). Detailed description of the invention
    [0028] The compact mixing and distribution device, according to the invention, is used in a reactor, in which exothermic reactions are carried out, such as hydrotreatment, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodesnitrogenation, hydrocracking, hydrogenation, hydrodeoxygenation or even hydrodesaromatization. Generally, the reactor has an elongated shape along a substantially vertical axis. At least one reaction fluid (also called "process fluid", according to Anglo-Saxon terminology) is circulated from top to bottom of this reactor through at least one fixed layer of catalyst. Advantageously, at the exit of each layer with the exception of the last one, the reaction fluid is collected, then it is mixed with a quench fluid (also called "quench fluid", according to Anglo-Saxon terminology) in that device before being distributed in the layer of catalyst located downstream of a distribution plate. Downstream and upstream are defined in relation to the flow direction of the reaction fluid. The reaction fluid can be a gas or a liquid or a mixture containing liquid and gas; this depends on the type of reaction carried out in the reactor.
    [0029] In order to better understand the invention, the description given below as an application example refers to a mixing and distribution device used in a reactor adapted for hydrotreating reactions. The description in figure 1 refers for a mixing and dispensing device, according to the prior art, the description of figures 2 to 5 refers to a mixing and dispensing device according to the invention. Figures 2 to 5 take up certain elements of figure 1; the references in figures 2 to 5, identical to those in figure 1, designate the same elements. Naturally, the device according to the invention can, without departing from the scope of the invention, be used in any reactor or device and in any field where it is desirable to obtain a good mixture, material and / or thermal and a good distribution of fluids .
    [0030] Figure 1 illustrates a mixing and distribution device, according to the prior art, arranged in a reactor 1 of elongated shape along a substantially vertical axis in which at least one reaction fluid is circulated from top to bottom through of the two layers of catalyst 2 and 14. The reaction fluid can be a gas (or a mixture of gas) or a liquid (or a mixture of liquid) or a mixture containing liquid and gas. The mixing and dispensing device is arranged under the catalyst layer 2, in relation to the flow of the reaction fluid in the compartment 1. A support grid 3 allows to support this catalyst layer 2, in order to free a collection space (A ) (also called the collection zone) under this. The height H1 of the collection space (A) is typically between 10 and 300 mm. This collection space or collection zone (A) allows the flow from the catalyst layer 2 to be collected at the level of the collection medium 5. Collection medium 5, also called column, is a full plate uniquely open at a location 6 for drain the fluid flow into an annular mixing chamber 9. The reaction fluid originating from layer 2 is thus compressed in the collection zone (A) to pass through the vertical collection channel 7 that communicates with the opening 6. A fluid Quenching medium is injected into the collection line 7 via an injection pipe 8. The quenching fluid can be liquid or gaseous or a mixture containing liquid or gas. This annular chamber 9 is connected by its inlet end to the collecting duct 7. The quenching fluid and the reaction fluid coming from the upper layer 2 are thus forced to take the path of this annular chamber 9, in which they mix, suffering a rotary flow. At the exit of that chamber, the fluid mixture flows over the pre-distribution plate 11 located downstream of the annular mixing chamber 9, in the direction of the fluid circulation. Typically, the height H2 (according to figure 1) considered between the collection medium 5 and the pre-distribution plate 11 is between 300 and 600 mm. The annular mixing chamber 9 is positioned on the periphery of the reactor. The gas and liquid phases of the mixture are separated on the perforated plate 11, which is provided with one or more central chimneys 4 configured to allow the passage of gas. The fluid passes through the perforations of the plate to form a shower or rain handle flow. The role of the perforated plate 11 is to distribute the flow from the annular mixing chamber 9 to feed the distribution plate 12 in a relatively balanced manner, that distribution plate 12 being positioned downstream of the pre-distribution plate 11 in the direction of fluid circulation. Typically, the height H3 (according to figure 1) measured between the pre-distribution plate 11 and the distribution plate 12 is between 100 and 700 mm. The distribution plate 12 comprises chimneys 13 whose role is to redistribute the gas and liquid phases at the entrance of the catalyst layer 14 located downstream of that distribution plate.
    [0031] The mixing and dispensing device, according to the prior art, therefore comprises a mixing zone and a distribution zone positioned one above the other, in a staggered manner. The mixing of fluids is carried out at an H2 height and the distribution of fluids is carried out at an H3 height. Therefore, the total volume H in compartment 1 of a mixing and distribution device, according to the prior art, is equal to H1 + H2 + H3 (according to figure 1).
    [0032] The applicant has developed a new fluid mixing and distribution device, more compact than that described previously, and presenting a good mixture of fluids and a good distribution over the catalyst layer located under these devices.
    [0033] With reference to figures 2, 3a and 3b, the mixing and distribution device, according to the invention, can be arranged in a reactor 1 of elongated shape along a substantially vertical axis in which it is circulated from top to bottom at least one reaction fluid through at least one layer of catalyst 2. The device according to the invention is arranged under the layer of catalyst 2 with respect to the flow of the reaction fluid in compartment 1. A grid of support 3 allows to support the catalyst layer 2, in order to release a collection zone (A) disposed under the catalyst layer 2. The collection zone (A) is necessary to allow the reaction fluid to drain into a collection duct 7 (according to figures 3a and 3b). The flowing reaction fluid is, for example, composed of a gas phase and a liquid phase. More particularly, the reaction fluid that passes through the catalyst layer 2 upstream is collected by means of a collection medium 5 (also in the case of a collection column) that is substantially horizontal, leading to a collection conduit 7 that is substantially vertical, disposed either below the collection zone (A) at the level of a zone called mixing zone (B) (as shown in figure 3b), or at the level of the collection zone (A) (not shown in the figures). By approximately vertical and by approximately horizontal, it is understood, in the sense of the present invention, a variation of a plane with the vertical, respectively the horizon, of an angle between + 5 degrees. The collection medium 5 (according to figure 2) consists of a full plate disposed in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the compartment under the support grid 3 of the catalyst layer 2. The plate of the collection medium 5 extends radially over the entire the surface of the reactor 1. It has an opening 6 at one of its ends (according to figures 3a and 3b) to which this collection duct is connected 7. The collection medium 5 allows to collect the flow of the reaction fluid from the catalytic layer 2 upstream and direct it to this collection line 7. The collection medium 5 is far from the support grid 3 of the catalyst layer 2 of a height H'1 (figure 2). The height H'1 is chosen, in order to limit the head loss, when collecting the fluid flowing from the catalyst layer 2 and to limit the protection height, that is, the height formed by the liquid accumulated in the collection medium. 5. The protective height does not modify the drainage of the reaction fluid towards the collection line 7, nor its flow in this line, nor its flow through the upper catalytic layer 2. When the collection line 7 and the injection medium 8 ( figure 3b) are located at the level of the mixing zone (B), the height H'1 is between 10 and 200 mm, preferably between 30 and 150 mm, even more preferably between 40 and 100 mm. Thus, the reaction fluid from layer 2 is compressed in the collection zone (A) to pass through the collection channel 7.
    [0034] When the collection line 7 and the injection medium 8 are located at the level of the collection zone (A), the height H'1 is between 10 and 400 mm, preferably between 30 and 300 mm, and still, but preferably between 50 and 250 mm.
    [0035] Below the collection zone (A) is a mixing zone (B) and a distribution zone (C). Referring to figures 3a and 3b, the mixing zone (B) comprises a substantially vertical collection line 7 capable of receiving the reaction fluid collected by means of collection 5 and the quenching fluid from the injection medium 8 (according to figure 3b), which flows into this collection channel 7.
    [0036] The mixing zone (B) also comprises a mixing compartment 15 (according to figures 2 and 3a) located downstream of the collection medium 5 in the direction of fluid circulation. The collection line 7, which is in communication with the mixing compartment 15, can be located above the mixing compartment 15 or on the same level as that compartment. Preferably, the collection line 7 is located on the same level as the mixing compartment 15 (as shown in Figure 3a). Likewise, the injection duct 8 can flow above the mixing compartment 15, on the same level as that compartment or directly inside that mixing compartment 15 by means of a device known to the technician, for example, a perforated tube that passes through the mixing zone 15. The injection of the quenching fluid can be carried out in the co-current, in current 15. The injection of the quenching fluid can be carried out in the co-current, in cross current, even in countercurrent in relation to the reaction fluid coming from collection zone (A).
    [0037] The distribution zone (C) comprises a distribution plate 12 that supports a plurality of chimneys 13.
    [0038] A feature of the present invention resides in placing the mixing zone (B) on the same level as the distribution zone (C), and the fact that this mixing zone (B) consists of a mixing compartment 15 of fluids connected and in communication with a fluid exchange compartment 16 (according to figures 2 and 3a), the exchange compartment 16 being located downstream of the mixing compartment 15 in the direction of fluid circulation. In the sense of the invention, mixing compartment 15 is understood to be the space in which the mixing of the reaction fluid and the quenching fluid takes place. Replacement compartment 16 is defined as the space in which the mixed reaction fluid and tempering fluid are in direct contact with the distribution zone (C), via the lateral passage sections 17a and / or 17b (described below) ).
    [0039] The configuration of the mixing zone (B) allows the mixing of the fluids in the mixing compartment 15 and the flow of that mixture towards the exchange compartment 16. The mixing between the reaction fluid and the quench fluid continues to take place in the exchange compartment level 16. Referring to figures 3a and 3b, the exchange compartment 16 comprises at least one side passage section 17a or 17b suitable for the passage of fluids from the mixing zone (B) in the distribution (C). Preferably, the mixing compartment 16 comprises at least two lateral passage sections 17a and 17b. Thus, only the exchange compartment 16 is in direct contact with the distribution zone (C). The side passage sections 17a notably allow the passage of liquid from the exchange compartment 16 to the distribution zone (C) and the side passage sections 17b notably allow the passage of gas from the exchange compartment 16 to the distribution zone (C) ).
    [0040] The section of the mixing compartment 15 and that of the exchange compartment 16 can be of section with four sides, preferably of trapezoidal section and, more preferably of section in parallelogram or circular section. Trapezoidal section means any section with four sides of which two opposite sides of that section are parallel two by two. By a parallelogram section, we mean any section with four sides of which the opposite sides of that section are parallel two by two, for example, the para-lelogram section can be a rectangular section, a square section or a section in diamond. A circular section means a section in the form of a circle or an oval. Regardless of the shape of the mixing compartment section 15 and the changing compartment 16, the height or diameter of that chamber will be chosen in order to limit the head loss as much as possible and in order to limit the spatial volume in the reactor. Advantageously, the section of the mixing compartment 15 and the exchange compartment 16 are rectangular (according to figures 2 to 5). The rectangular section of the compartments, in addition to facilitated mechanical fabrication, allows their manufacture and partial connection to the outside of the reactor, allowing them to be easily inserted into the reactor. The mixing compartment section 15 can be different from the exchange compartment section 16 (according to figures 4b, 4c, 4e and 4f).
    [0041] The shape of the mixing compartment 15 and the changing compartment 16 can be any one. The walls of the mixing compartment 15 and the exchange compartment 16 can noticeably propagate in a straight direction ("I" shape), or be curved ("C" shape) or even have angles ("L shape) "). The mixing zone (B) can be located anywhere on the level of the distribution zone (C). For example, the mixing zone (B) can be positioned in the center of the distribution zone (C) or it can be out of phase with the latter position. Thus, the length of the mixing and exchange compartment is determined by the technician, depending on its position in the reactor compartment 1. Advantageously, the ends of the mixing and exchange compartments 16 are not in contact with the wall of the storage compartment. reactor 1, in order to allow the circulation of fluids on the distribution plate 12 on both sides of the mixing and exchange compartments 16.
    [0042] In one embodiment, according to the invention, the mixing compartment 15 is located above that exchange compartment 16 (as shown in figures 2, 3a and 3b). The mixing compartment 15 can also be located under that exchange compartment 16 (according to figure 4a). In another embodiment, according to the invention, the mixing zone (B) can comprise a mixing compartment 15 and a plurality of exchange compartments 16. For example, the exchange compartments 16 can be positioned on both sides sides of the mixing compartment 15 (as shown in figure 4c). At least one opening 18 (according to figure 3a) is made in the mixing zone (B) to allow the passage of the mixture of fluids from the mixing compartment 15 towards the exchange compartment 16. The position, shape and size of the opening are chosen by the technician, in order to limit the head loss, when the fluid mixture flows.
    [0043] Advantageously, the mixing compartment 15 and the exchange compartment (s) 16 constitute a single piece.
    [0044] In another embodiment, according to the invention, the mixing compartment 15 may comprise one or more levels (two levels within the scope of figure 4d). When the mixing chamber 15 comprises several levels, the passage of fluids from one level to another is carried out by means of at least one passage section (not shown in figure 4d) of the type of perforations or slits; the surface of this passage section being chosen in such a way that it disturbs the flow of fluids, without thereby inducing an important head loss. The position, shape and dimension of the section or passage sections between two levels of the mixing zone 15 is (are) chosen (s) by the technician in order to limit the pressure drop when the fluid mixture flows.
    [0045] According to the invention, the total accumulated height H'2 of that mixing compartment 15 and of that exchange compartment 16 is between 200 and 800 mm, preferably between 300 and 750 mm, and even more preferably between 350 and 750 mm.
    [0046] Preferably, the width "L" (according to figure 3a) of the exchange compartment 16 is between 200 and 800 mm, preferably between 250 and 700 mm, and even more preferably between 300 and 600 mm.
    [0047] The volume ratio (in%) between the exchange compartment (s) 16 and the mixing compartment 15 is between 5 and 60%, preferably between 10 and 40%.
    [0048] The distribution zone (C), which extends at a height H'3 (according to figure 2), comprises a distribution plate 12 (also known in the case of distribution plate or distribution plate) and a plurality of chimneys 13. More precisely, chimneys 13 are opened at their upper end by an upper opening and have along their side wall a series of side holes (not shown in the figures) intended for the separate passage of the liquid phase (through the holes) and the gas phase (through the upper opening) inside chimneys, in order to perform its intimate mixture inside these chimneys. The shape of the side holes can be very variable, generally circular or rectangular, these holes being preferably distributed in each of the chimneys, according to several levels substantially identical from one chimney to the other, usually at least one level, and preferably from one level. at ten levels, in order to allow the establishment of an interface as re-guiding as possible between the gas phase and the liquid phase.
    [0049] In relation to the prior art mixing and dispensing device, the mixing and dispensing device according to the invention does not comprise pre-distribution plates 11 provided with chimneys. Indeed, according to an essential aspect of the device, according to the invention, the mixing zone (B) is positioned at the same level as the dispensing zone (C). The mixing and dispensing device, according to the invention, is therefore significantly more compact than those known in the prior art. In relation to the device, according to the prior art, as illustrated in figure 1, the total volume of the mixing and dispensing device, according to the invention, is H = H'1 + H'3 (according to figure 2) .
    [0050] In an embodiment, according to the invention, the compartment (s) 15 or 16 or the closest to the distribution plate 12 is (are) positioned (s) directly on the distribution plate 12 (according to figure 2).
    [0051] In another embodiment (according to figure 5), the compartment (s) 15 and / or 16 or the closest to the distribution plate 12 is located at a distance "d" from that dispensing plate 12, preferably between 20 and 150 mm, and more preferably between 30 and 80 mm. The space between the distribution plate 12 and the compartment or compartments 15 and / or 16 allows the distribution of fluids over the entire surface of the distribution plate 12, and therefore allows to homogenize the distribution of the mixture of fluids over the entire section of the reactor above the catalyst layer 14 located downstream of the mixing and distribution device, in the direction of fluid circulation. In this embodiment, the exchange compartment 16 may comprise longitudinal passage sections (not shown in figure 5) at its bottom, so that the mixture of fluids can flow towards the distribution plate 12 (the flow of fluids represented by the horizontal arrows in figure 5).
    [0052] Alternatively, when the exchange compartment 16 is placed directly on the distribution plate 12, this exchange compartment may comprise longitudinal passage sections (not shown in the figures) at its bottom, so that the mixture of fluids can pass directly through the distribution plate 12. Naturally, the number, shape and size of the longitudinal passage sections are chosen, so that a minor fraction of the fluid mixing flow passes through these longitudinal passage sections. The longitudinal passage sections can indifferently take the form of holes and / or slits.
    [0053] Preferably, the mixing compartment 15 may comprise at least one diversion means (not shown in the figures) on at least one of the inner walls of that mixing compartment. The presence of at least one means of diversion of the mixture of fluids that pass through this mixing compartment 15 allows to increase the exchange surface between the two phases and, therefore, the efficiency of the heat and matter transfers between the liquid phases and / or gases that pass through this mixing compartment 15. This diversion means can be presented in several geometric shapes that allow to improve the efficiency of the mixing compartment, naturally that these shapes allow a deviation at least in part of the path of the mixture of fluids that crosses this exchange compartment 15. For example, the diversion medium can be in the form of a baffle, with a triangular, square, rectangular section, ovoid or any other form of section. The deflection means can also be in the form of one or more fins of one or more fixed blades or a grid.
    [0054] Under the distribution plate 12, a dispersion system can be positioned, in order to distribute the fluids evenly over the catalyst layer 14 located downstream of that system. The dispersion system can comprise one or more dispersion devices 19 (according to figure 2) that can be associated with each chimney 13, be in common with several chimneys 13, or even be in common with the set of chimneys 13 of the distribution plate 12. Each dispersion device 19 has a substantially flat and horizontal geometry, but can have a perimeter in any way. On the other hand, each dispersion device 19 can be located at different heights. Advantageously, this dispersion device is in the form of gratings, and / or may eventually comprise deflectors. Advantageously, the axis of the grid (s) 19 is preferably perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the reactor compartment, in order to improve the distribution of the fluid mixture over the entire radial section of the reactor compartment. The distance that separates the dispersion system from the granular solids layer located immediately below is chosen, in order to preserve the mixing state of the gas phases and still as much as possible, as it is at the exit of the chimneys 13.
    [0055] Preferably, the distance between the distribution plate 12 and the catalyst layer 14 located under that distribution plate is between 50 and 400 mm, preferably between 100 and 300 mm. The distance between the distributor plate 12 and the spreading device 19 is between 0 and 400 mm, preferably between 0 and 300 mm.
    [0056] In a particular embodiment, the distribution plate 12 is placed on the dispersing device 19.
    [0057] In relation to the devices described in the prior art, and even more particularly in relation to the device disclosed in document FR 2 952 835, the mixing and dispensing device, according to the invention, has the following advantages: - increased compactness due to the integration at the same height of the mixing zone and the fluid distribution zone; -a good thermal efficiency and a good mixing efficiency thanks to the flow of the mixing of the fluids in a mixing zone comprising a mixing compartment, which eventually includes fluid diversion means, and one or more exchange compartments located at the pan level of distribution. Example
    [0058] In the following examples, the device is compared, not according to the invention (Device A) with a device, according to the invention (Device B). For both devices, the height H1 of the collection space (A) is considered to be identical and is equal to 120 mm. Likewise, the collection line 7 and the injection medium 8 are located on the same level as the mixing zone (B). Likewise, the height between the distribution plate 12 and the height of the layer 14 is fixed at 400 mm. The comparisons between these two devices are based on their compactness in a catalytic reactor. These examples are presented, by way of illustration, and do not limit the scope of the invention in any way. Device A (not according to the invention)
    [0059] For an internal reactor diameter of 5 m, the volume of a classic mixing device, as disclosed in document FR 2 952 835 A1, between the upper end of the collection line 7 and the pre-distribution plate 11 is approximately 650 mm (corresponding to height H2). The total volume is approximately 950 mm, adding the volume of the distribution plate 12 located under the pre-distribution plate 11 (corresponding to a height H3 = 300 mm).
    [0060] Thus, the total volume of a classic mixing and dispensing device, considered between the bottom of the first catalytic layer 2 and the top of the second catalytic layer 14 is 120 + 950 + 400 = 1470 mm. Device B (according to the invention)
    [0061] For the reactor diameter of 5 m, the height of the distribution and mixing device, according to the invention, between the upper end of the collecting line 7 and the distribution plate 12 is 450 mm (corresponding at height H'3). The mixing zone (B) consists of a mixing compartment 15 comprising two levels 150 mm high each, and a changing compartment 16 150 mm high (corresponding to an H'2 height of 150 + 150 + 150 = 450 mm). The width "L" of the mixing compartment 15 and the exchange compartment 16 is 400 mm. The exchange compartment 16 is connected to the dispensing plate (C) via side passage sections 17a and 17b located between 0 and 10 mm above the plate, (for passage sections 17a). Thus, the total volume of the mixing and dispensing device, according to the invention, considered between the bottom of the first catalytic layer 2 and the top of the second catalytic layer 14 is 120 + 450 + 400 = 970 mm.
    [0062] Thus, by way of comparison, the device, according to the invention, allows a space gain of 34% in relation to device A. The space gained by the compactness of the device, according to the invention, in relation to the prior art device can thus be used for the catalyst layers.
    [0063] Thus, the device, according to the invention, also improves the performance of a reactor by increasing the amount of catalyst in the catalytic layers, being manufactured and installed more easily than the same device, according to the prior art. .
