Page column 14, (2008/06/13)
The invention relates to a process for conducting a chemical reaction characterized by an equilibrium in a reaction system designed as a loop reactor, said loop reactor comprising a reactor vessel (1), at least one loop connected to said reactor vessel (1) each by means of an outlet and an inlet, said loop comprising means (3) for pumping over a fluid reaction material, at least one he exchanger (4), optionally means (5) for feeding said reaction material into Me reactor vessel (1) and a separate gas loop (8) which is connected to the gas space of the reactor vessel (1) above the reaction mixture and has separate means for feeding a gas into the gas loop (8), for withdrawing gas from the gas loop (8) and/or for treating said gas circulating in the gas loop (8), said process comprising the steps of circulating and/or treating said gas in said gas loop (8), feeding said gas into the reactor vessel (1) for influencing the equilibrium of a reaction conducted in said reactor vessel (1) and being characterized by the equilibrium and, after influencing said equilibrium reaction conducted in said reactor vessel (1), exhausting said gas from said reactor vessel (1) into the gas loop (8).
