Abstract
This specification discloses a radial flow continuous reaction/regeneration apparatus. Through employing a rotary device to individually and annularly distributing process fluid and regeneration fluid into a stationary segmented reaction/regeneration box and receiving effluents individually and annularly from the same stationary reaction/regeneration box, the mentioned radial flow continuous reaction/regeneration apparatus can be operated continuously and efficiently without the need for shutting down for regeneration. This radial flow continuous reaction/regeneration apparatus is not only used to separate components by adsorption, such as dehumidification, but also is used in chemical processes to carry out catalytic reaction, regenerate catalyst and used as filtration device to trap particles by changing the filler in the stationary reaction/regeneration box.
