Reaction Facilities
We currently have 14 reactors of 316 s/s construction available in a range of capacities from 10m3 to 50m3, pressure ratings to 5 Bar and full vacuum with steam and thermal oil heating and DSEAR Zoning design enables us to process a wide range of chemical reactions.
The chemistries undertaken at the site include:
- Neutralisation
- Polymerisation
- Esterification
- Amidation
- Phosphation
- Oxidation
- Carboxylation
- Sulphamation
- Sulphation
- Saponification
- Imidazoline manufacture
- And more
The site contains a selection of reactors up to 50M3 to give us a total reaction capacity of 285M3. These reaction vessels offer various speed agitation with anchor, axial and turbine impellors.
They can be steam heated to 150°C and up to 300°C through thermal oil heating. We can offer QVF vacuum distillation with receiver vessels that have temperature chilled cooling systems.
The reactors are fitted with a choice of activated carbon and acid / alkali scrubber systems in order to limit the environmental impact of the reactions undertaken.
