DEVICE FOR CONTINUOUSLY MIXING FED-OUT NATURAL GAS WITH OXYGEN TO PRODUCE A BURNABLE GAS FOR HEATING PRESSURIZED NATURAL GAS BEFORE OR AFTER THE EXPANSION THEREOF

摘要

The invention relates to a device for continuously mixingfed-out natural gas with oxygen to produce a burnable gas used for heatingthe pressurized natural gas before or after the relaxation thereof, comprisinga mixing section having connections for a natural gas supply line, anoxygen infeed line, and a burnable gas discharge line. The mixing sectionis designed as a closed mixing container, which has a mixing chamber, atthe center of which forming a mixing zone a distributing pipe for oxygenis disposed that is joined to the connection for oxygen infeed. The mixingchamber is filled completely, and the distributing pipe is filled at leastpartially,with a packing of ceramic granular material. The mixing chamber ofthe mixing container is equipped with temperature sensors for temperaturemeasurement. The mixing container is designed as a standing container,which at the bottom has the connection of the natural gas supply and at thetop the connection for the burnable gas discharge.
