\Delta \T (\Delta r) = \T'(r + \Delta r) - \T(r + \delta r) \simeq \Delta r \bigg[ \frac{\D \T'}{\D r}-\frac{\D \T}{\D r}\bigg].
\end{equation}
Assuming $\T' \simeq \T$, i.e. the temperature is not changing drastically within the distance $\Delta r$, one can write
\begin{equation} \begin{equation}\label{eq:deltat}
\Delta \T (\Delta r) = \Delta r \, \T \bigg[ -\frac{\D \ln \T}{\D r}- \bigg(-\frac{\D \ln \T'}{\D r}\bigg)\bigg],
\end{equation}
and using the assumption of pressure equilibrium, the definitions of pressure scale height $\hp$ and the gradients $\nabla$ and $\nabla'$ we obtain
