Electrically heated reaction kettle

Electrically heated reaction kettle

Overview

Electrically heated reactors are primarily used in the petrochemical, chemical, rubber, pesticide, dye, and food industries, serving as vessels for processes like vulcanization, nitration, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonation, polymerization, and condensation, such as reactors, reactors, decomposition pots, and polymerization vessels. The materials commonly used include stainless steel and carbon steel. Electrically heated reactors are widely applied in the chemical, food, natural flavoring, food additive, and light industry sectors.

Equipment Structure

The electrically heated reaction kettle is composed of the kettle body, lid, stirrer, jacket, support, and drive unit, as well as the shaft seal unit. The material and aperture can be customized according to the user's process requirements. Made of 1Cr18Ni19Ti stainless steel plate, the stirring methods typically include anchor, paddle, worm gear, propulsion, or frame styles. It is a cost-effective, easy-to-operate unit that heats the oil inside the jacket directly with electric heating rods, achieving high heating temperatures. The kettle consists of the lid, cylinder body, jacket, stirrer, shaft seal drive unit, and support. It is suitable for various organic compounds in decomposition, synthesis, cracking, polymerization, and esterification reactions.

Heating methods include electric, oil, gas, water (or cooling), and open flame heating. Jacket types are jacketed and semi-tubular, with jacketed oil heating models featuring flow guidance devices. Mixing types generally include paddle, anchor, frame, ribbon, and scraper styles. High-speed models include dispersing impeller, turbine, high-shear, and propeller types, allowing customers to choose based on the process. Transmission options include standard motors, explosion-proof motors, electromagnetic speed control motors, and inverters. Heat exchangers come in trochoid pinion, worm gear, and planetary stepless variable speed designs. Shaft seals are of the standard water-cooled packed, combined Teflon packed, and mechanical seal types. Discharge options include ball valves and lowering gates.

Features of the Equipment

Electrically heated reaction kettle features rapid heating, high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, hygiene, no environmental pollution, no need for kettle movement to heat, and ease of use.

Used in oil, chemical, rubber, pesticide, dye, food industries, for processes like vulcanization, nitrification, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonation, polymerization, and condensation. It requires thorough mixing of reactants as a prerequisite and employs agitation devices for effective heating, cooling, liquid extraction, and gas absorption. We can also design and process externally coil reactors for our clients.

Equipment Categories

Sleeve types include jacketed and semi-tubular, with jacketed oil heating models featuring flow guidance devices. Mixing methods commonly include paddle, anchor, frame, helical, and scraper types. High-speed options include diffuser impeller, turbine, high-shear, and propeller designs, allowing customers to select based on their process requirements. Transmission methods include standard motors, explosion-proof motors, electromagnetic speed control motors, and inverters. Gearboxes come in cycloidal pinion, worm, and planetary variable speed types. Shaft seals are typically water-cooled packed, combined packed, or mechanical sealed.

The reactor is composed of the pot body, pot cover, agitator, electric heating oil jacket, support and transmission device, shaft seal device, overflow oil trough, etc., and is equipped with electric heating rods and temperature and pressure measuring instruments. (See Figures 1 and 2) Due to the varying production processes and operating conditions among users, the type of agitation generally includes anchor, paddle, turbine, propeller, or frame. The bearing seat comes in two types: suspended or supported. The jacket contains heat medium cylinder oil, heated by electric heating rods, with openings for oil inlet, outlet, overflow, venting, and electric heating rod and temperature measurement connections. The jacket's outer wall is welded with supports, and the pot body has an outlet at the bottom.
