Supercritical Water Oxidation Reactor With a Corrosion-Resistant Lining

摘要

A supercritical water oxidation reactor includes a vessel with an interiorsurface, two cooling sections, a heat exchanger, an oxygenating section, a pump, and a trap. The interior surface of the vessel has a corrosion-resistant, artificial ceramic or diamond-like coating. The artificial diamond coating is thin and crystal-like in structure. The heat exchanger is located between the two cooling sections. The heat exchanger and the two cooling sections surround the exterior of the vessel. The oxygenating section comprises a porous cylindrical baffle positioned within the vessel. The porous baffle transfers oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, of other oxygenating substances to an aqueous hazardous waste introduced into the reactor. in accordance with another aspect of the invention, the oxygenating section includes a shaft having a helical extension. The shaft has a corrosion-resistant, artificial diamond or diamond-like coating on its outer surface. The shaft rotates the helical extension to assist in removing solids from the aqueous hazardous waste. jg.
