Electrically heated reaction kettle

Summary

Electrically heated reactors are mainly used in the petrochemical, chemical, rubber, pesticide, dye, and food industries to complete processes such as vulcanization, nitration, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonation, polymerization, and condensation; examples include reactors, reaction kettles, decomposition pots, and polymerizers. The materials commonly used are stainless steel and carbon steel. Electrically heated reactors are widely applied in industries such as chemicals, food, natural seasonings, food additives, and light industry.

Equipment Structure

Electrically heated reaction kettle is composed of kettle body, kettle lid, stirrer, jacket, support and transmission device, shaft seal device, etc. The material and opening can be customized according to the user's process requirements. Made of 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel plate, the stirring types usually include anchor, paddle, worm gear, pusher, or frame. It is a cost-effective and easy-to-operate unit that heats the oil inside the jacket directly with electric heating rods, offering high heating temperatures. The reaction kettle is made up of kettle lid, cylinder body, jacket, stirrer, shaft seal transmission device, and support. It is suitable for various organic compounds for decomposition, synthesis, cracking, polymerization, and esterification reactions.

Heating methods include electric, oil, gas, water heating (or cooling), and open flame heating. Jacket types are: jacketed and semi-tubular. Jacketed oil heating types are equipped with flow directing devices. Mixing types generally consist of paddle, anchor, frame, ribbon, and scraper types. High-speed types include dispersal impeller, turbine, high-shear, and propeller designs, allowing customers to select based on their process requirements. Transmission types include standard motors, explosion-proof motors, electromagnetic speed control motors, and variable frequency drives. Heat exchangers come in trochoidal pinion, worm gear, and planetary infinite variable speed designs. Shaft seals are of the standard water-cooled packed, combined Teflon packed, and mechanical seal types. Discharge types include ball valves and gate valves.

Equipment Features

The electric heating reactor features rapid heating, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, hygiene, no environmental pollution, no need for pot movement to heat, and ease of use.

Used in oil, chemical, rubber, pesticide, dye, food industries, for processes such as vulcanization, nitration, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonation, polymerization, and condensation. It relies on thorough mixing of the reactants, and requires a stirring device for effective heat, cooling, liquid extraction, and gas absorption processes. We can design and process external coil reaction vessels for our customers.

Equipment Category

Sleeve types include jacketed and semi-tubular, with jacketed oil heating models featuring flow guides. Mixing methods commonly include paddle, anchor, frame, helical, and scraper types. High-speed options include scatter 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 designs. 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 intake, discharge, 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.
