Abstract

An apparatus for mixing a hydrocarbon-containing gas flow with a molecular oxygen-containing gas flow, wherein at least one aqueous medium sealing zone allowing the hydrocarbon-containing gas flow to pass therethrough is provided by sealing a side of said introduced gas flow with an aqueous medium, providing at least one shielding zone for flame propagration, said gas flow is allowed to pass therethrough on a discharge side of said gas flow, and providing means for introducing the molecular oxygen-containing gas flow into a gas mixing zone defined between both of the above zones there to be thoroughly mixed with the hydrocarbon-containing gas flow.
