Odell, W

A process of producing vapor-phase chemical reactions in a gaseous fluid stream is discussed. The process consists of passing a gaseous stream, which is initially comprised of a plurality of gaseous fluids capable of chemically reacting with one another, upwardly through a confined layer of granular catalytic material of a depth that said layer is maintained in a state of motion such that the layer presents the appearance of a boiling liquid. The process continues by maintaining the temperature of said material favorable for causing chemical reaction between said fluids. This will form chemical-reaction products essentially from said fluids by virtue of their intimate contact with said material, which can be withdrawn from them in said stream.
