Present invention relates to an apparatus () for producing nanocarriers and/or nanoformulation and a process for producing a nanocarrier and/or a nanoformulation by means of this apparatus (). According to inventive preparation, a first liquid phase (A) and the second liquid phase (B) are mixed first to give the primary mixture (A+B) by means of a static mixer (). In a subsequence mixing step primary mixture (A+B) is diluted with a third liquid (C). An important aspect of apparatus () is the arrangement of the static mixer () inside a linear pipe () conducting third liquid phase (C). Thus, the primary mixture (A+B) exiting the mixer () is instantaneously diluted with (C) to give secondary mixture (A+B+C). The volume flow of the third mixture (C) is chosen larger than the volume flow of the primary mixture (A+B). By these measures, nanocarriers with improved morphology and homogeneity are produced. Encapsulation efficiency was enhanced as well.

Nanocarrier manufacturing

An apparatus and corresponding process can be used for producing nanocarriers and or nanoformulations and corresponding process products. The apparatus is characterized by a vertical orientation of the feed conduits leading to active element. The feed conduits are nested within one another and are axially movable in terms of their orientation to one another. The process provides for the mixing of at least two liquid phases with different acidities. The volume flow of the first phase is greater than that of the second phase.

An apparatus for chlor-alkali electrolysis, comprising a cathode half-cell, an oxygen-consuming electrode arranged therein, a conduit for supply of gaseous oxygen to the cathode half-cell and a conduit for purging the cathode half-cell with inert gas, enables the flexible use of power by a method in which chlorine is produced in the apparatus by chlor-alkali electrolysis, wherein, when power supply is low, the oxygen-consuming electrode is supplied with gaseous oxygen, and oxygen is reduced at the oxygen-consuming electrode at a first cell voltage, and when power supply is high, the oxygen-consuming electrode is not supplied with any oxygen, and hydrogen is generated at the cathode at a second cell voltage which is higher than the first cell voltage.

A method for modification of a methane-containing gas stream, comprising the steps of: i) withdrawal of at least one substream from a methane-containing gas stream; ii) treatment of the substream with an electrically generated plasma, generating a modified gas composition which comprises a lower fraction of methane than the methane-containing gas stream used and iii) return of modified gas composition into the methane-containing gas stream. This method makes possible the storage of excess power in a natural gas line grid.
