(57) [Summary]nThe present invention relates to a method for producing an amine by hydrogenation of a nitro compound, comprising a vertical reactor having a reactor length larger than the diameter of the reactor, wherein the starting material and the reaction material are arranged at the top of the reactor. A downward jet nozzle for introducing the mixture, and an outlet arranged at a desired position in the reactor, wherein the reaction mixture is transported from said outlet by means of transport through said external circuit. A method comprising performing hydrogenation in a reactor adapted to be returned to a jet nozzle and provided with a flow reversal located below the reactor. |
