Abstract
Method and apparatus for cushioning continuous exothermal reactions with or in the presence of liquefied gases having a reactor, a condenser connected to the reactor, an accumulator connected to the condenser and a gravity fed cooling medium supply vessel providing cooling to the condenser. A first blocking valve which responds to excess pressure is inserted in the line between the reactor and the condenser and a second blocking valve, actuated synchronously with the first valve, activates the flow of the cooling medium through the condenser.
