20100001419 | STEAM INJECTION HEATER WITH STATIONARY END SEAL ASSEMBLY - A direct contact steam injection heater that includes a steam diffuser having a plurality of steam diffusion holes that are selectively exposed by a regulating member to control the amount of steam used to heat a liquid. The regulating member is movable within the steam diffuser and the steam diffuser includes a seating member to prevent the flow of steam from the diffuser when the regulating member is in a completely closed, seated position. At least one sealing members selectively exposes the steam diffusion holes in the discharge region of the steam diffuser when the regulating member moves between the open and closed positions. The spacing of the steam diffusion holes along the steam diffuser can be varied depending upon the desired resolution of the steam released as the regulating member moves between its fully closed and fully open position. | 01-07-2010 |

The steam injection heater includes a mixing tube that receives the product flow to be heated. The mixing tube includes a series of steam injection holes that are positioned within a steam chamber defined by the heater body. Pressurized steam within the steam chamber flows into the mixing tube in a direction transverse to the flow axis through the steam injection holes. A regulating member is selectively movable relative to the mixing tube to expose the steam injection holes to the steam chamber to control the amount of steam utilized to heat the product flow. | 04-08-2010 |
20140138860 | FLUID DIFFUSING NOZZLE DESIGN - A nozzle design for diffusing high pressure steam into by flowing process fluid of substantially lower pressure while reducing the noise intensity generated.

The diameters of the first and second openings can vary relative to each other to enhance the flow characteristics of the steam or other gas being injected into a flow of liquid. The outer surface of a diffuser tube is coated with an insulating material, such as plastic. In alternate embodiments, the orientation of the injection holes can be angled either upstream or downstream to further enhance mixing characteristics of the steam. | 05-22-2014 |

20150306531 | PROCESSES FOR REMOVING ENTRAINED PARTICULATES FROM A GAS - In a process for removing entrained particulates from a gas, a chemical reaction may be conducted in a vessel. Conducting the chemical reaction may include suspending particulates in a gas in a fluidized bed in the vessel. A portion of the gas and entrained particulates may be directed to a filter medium and the entrained particulates may be filtered from the gas. Filtering the entrained particulates may include directing the gas from a feed side of the filter medium through the filter medium to a filtrate side of the filter medium and may also include directing at least a portion of the entrained particulates generally tangentially along the feed side of the filter medium to scour the feed side of the filter medium. The particulates may then be directed from the feed side of the filter medium into a dip leg. | 10-29-2015 |
20150306534 | ARRANGEMENTS FOR REMOVING ENTRAINED CATALYST PARTICULATES FROM A GAS - An arrangement for removing entrained catalyst particulates from a gas may include a pressure vessel, a filter assembly, and a dip leg. The pressure vessel may contain a fluidized bed of catalyst particulates suspended in the gas. Some of the gas and entrained catalyst particulates may be directed to the filter assembly where the entrained catalyst particulates are filtered from the gas by a filter medium. The catalyst particulates pass generally tangentially along a feed side of the filter medium, where they scour the feed side of the filter medium, and then pass into the dip tube which guides the catalyst particulates away from the filter medium. | 10-29-2015 |
