Device for quenching reaction at variable time points
View Patent ↗A system and method is provided for producing and delivering a product. The system includes a chamber having an inlet end, an outlet end and quenching points positioned therebetween. The inlet end is configured to receive a plurality of precursors and the quenching points are configured to receive water to obtain quenching of the reaction in the chamber thereby providing varying concentration of the resultant product.
1. A system for producing a resultant product, comprising: a chamber having an inlet end, an outlet end and a plurality of quenching points positioned therebetween, wherein the inlet end is configured to receive a plurality of precursors such that the plurality of precursors enter the chamber at the inlet end and the plurality of quenching points are configured to receive water such that water enters the chamber at the quenching points to obtain quenching of the reaction in the chamber thereby providing varying concentration of the resultant product.
2. The system of claim 1 wherein the resultant product is comprised of chlorine dioxide and other oxychloro intermediates.
3. The system of claim 1 wherein the plurality of precursors are sodium chlorite and an aqueous acid.
4. The system of claim 3 wherein the sodium chlorite is present in an amount of between 7% and 25% by weight.
5. The system of claim 3 wherein the aqueous acid is a hydrochloric acid present in an amount between 5% and 33% by weight.
6. The system of claim 1 wherein a friction reducer is provided with the plurality of precursors.
7. The system of claim 1 wherein a scale inhibitor is provided with the plurality of precursors.
8. The system of claim 1 wherein the chamber is a combination of pipes of different diameters attached in series.
9. The system of claim 1 wherein the chamber is mounted on a mobile unit.
10. A method for producing chlorine dioxide: injecting a plurality of precursors into a chamber having an inlet end, an outlet end and quenching points positioned therebetween, wherein the inlet end is configured to receive the plurality of precursors such that the plurality of precursors enter the chamber at the inlet end and the plurality of quenching points are configured to receive water such that water enters the chamber at the quenching points; injecting water into the quenching points of the chamber to obtain quenching of the reaction; and providing chlorine dioxide from the outlet end of the chamber.
11. The method of claim 10 wherein the plurality of precursors are sodium chlorite and an aqueous acid.
12. The method of claim 11 wherein the sodium chlorite is present in an amount of between 7% and 25% by weight.
