TL;DR: In this paper, a fluidized spray vessel was designed for recovering heat from gaseous heat streams, where liquid is sprayed through nozzles designed to provide a mean droplet size having a terminal velocity of from about sixty percent to about ninety five percent of the superficial upward gas velocity.
Abstract: A fluidized spray vessel. A vessel design is provided for recovering heat from gaseous heat streams. The vessel utilizes a semi-fluidized bed for obtaining desirable liquid/vapor contact times. A spray section is provided in which liquid is sprayed through nozzles designed to provide a mean droplet size having a terminal velocity of from about sixty percent to about ninety five percent of the superficial upward gas velocity. These spray tower design criteria enhance spray tower performance, and thus enables more efficient heat recovery to be practiced, particularly in systems where relatively low grade heat sources are encountered.

TL;DR: In this article, a spray tower is configured and operated in such a way that a ratio of the quantity of water added via the slurry (in liters per hour) to tower volume (in m 3 ) is between 0.5 and 1.8 and a maximum of 0.17 kg of slurry is atomized per m 3 of incoming drying gas.
Abstract: A hard metal granulate is produced by wet milling and spray drying in a spray tower using pure water as the liquid phase. The spray tower is configured and operated in such a way that a ratio of the quantity of water added via the slurry (in liters per hour) to tower volume (in m 3 ) is between 0.5 and 1.8 and in that a maximum of 0.17 kg of slurry is atomized per m 3 of incoming drying gas. The slurry has a solid particle concentration within a range of 65-85% by weight. Under these conditions, the addition of a water-soluble, long-chain polyglycol to the slurry prior to spraying previously required in order to prevent oxidation of the hard metal granulate is no longer necessary.

TL;DR: In this article, a spray tower is configured and operated in such a way that the ratio of the amount of water, which is supplied over the wet slurry, in liters per hour ranges from 0.5 to 1.8 with regard to the tower volume in m3, and that a maximum of 0.17 kg wet slurps are supplied per m3 drying gas, whereby the solids content ranges from 65 to 85 wt. %.
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a hard metal granulated material by carrying out wet milling and spray drying inside a spray tower -1- while using pure water as the liquid phase. According to the invention, the spray tower -1- is configured and operated in such a manner that the ratio of the amount of water, which is supplied over the wet slurry, in liters per hour ranges from 0.5 to 1.8 with regard to the tower volume in m3, and that a maximum of 0.17 kg wet slurry is supplied per m3 drying gas, whereby the wet slurry has a solids content ranging from 65 to 85 wt. %. Under these conditions, the usually necessary addition of a water-soluble, long-chain polyglycol to the wet slurry before spraying in order to prevent the hard metal granulated material from oxidizing is eliminated.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To heighten reliability of a corrosion test by adjusting pH of saripled spray liquid to be neutral, and to accelerate corrosion speed. SOLUTION: Compressed air is brought into contact with an adsorbent represented by molecular sieve carbon and zeolite having high selective adsorbablity of gaseous carbon dioxide relative to gaseous nitrogen or gaseous oxygen, to thereby remove gaseous the carbon dioxide from the compressed air by a pressure swing adsorption system, and part of the air after removing carbon dioxide is brought into contact with an adsorbent represented by molecular sieve carbon and zeolite having high selective adsorbablity of gaseous nitrogen relative to gaseous oxygen, to thereby remove the gaseous nitrogen by the pressure swing adsorption system, and the air after removing carbon dioxide is mixed therewith at an optional ratio, respectively. Then, after adjusting ventilation pressure, the mixed air is passed through an air saturator and discharged from a spray nozzle. Saltwater is sprayed from the spray nozzle as mist into a test chamber from a spray tower and provided into the test chamber, to thereby execute the corrosion test.
