Chemical Reactors - Stainless Steel, 50 To 250,000 Litres Capacity | High-temperature Heating And Constant Cooling Systems

Our range of Chemical Reactors are at the heart of a chemical plant. They are where the chemical changes and reactions take place. The capacity of reaction vessels can range from50 litres to 250,000 litres and they are generally made from stainless steel, glasslined steel, glass or ceramics.The ingredients for the chemical reaction are called the reactants. These rawmaterials can be loaded into the reaction vessel in a variety of ways. Measured amounts of reactants may be pumped into the vessel through pipes attached to inletvalves. Powders or liquids may be poured into reaction vessels using large funnels,called hoppers, connected to the top of the vessel.The conditions inside a reaction vessel are controlled to give the fastest possible chemical reaction. This can include: Heating the vessel to speed up a chemical reaction. This is achieved by having steam-filled pipes inside the vessel or in a "jacket" surrounding it. Temperatures of several hundred degrees centigrade may be required.a c Cooling the reaction vessel may be required if the chemical reaction produces heat. A cold water jacket cools the vessel and prevents the build up of dangerously high pressures. Cooling water flows constantly through the jacket and removes heat from the reaction vessel.
