Title: Fluidized bed reactor

Abstract: The invention relates to a new type of fluidized bed reactor of the so-cad central jet type. This reactor has an annular shape such as that shown in the accompanying drawings. The annulus is defined by vertical cylindrical walls at its upper part, and by conical walls at its lower part, the latter walls being joined to one or more annular pipes. Such an arrangement considerably increases the capacity of the jet reactors. This reactor may be used for a large number of applications: preparation of nuclear fuels, drying of cereals, etc.
