Reactors
Reactors can be built to a variety of sizes and can be furnished for atmospheric pressure, or designed for internal and external pressure. All materials are available including stainless steel, nickel alloys and reactive metals. Reactors can be provided in many material finishes and weld finishes, from mill sheet and plate to a polished 320 grit surface and welds varying from an "as welded" condition to a highly polished sanitary, or corrosion resisting finish.
Whatever the reaction requirement of the vessel, whether it is a function of time, temperature, pressure or a combining of chemicals, we can build the reactor for most applications. Vertical designed reactors are typically the most cost effective design.
We can also design a system around your storage tank to include pumps, pressure/temperature measuring equipment, and lifting/filling equipment.
Our general design parameters for reactors is:
- 14"-0" Diameter (4.2m)
- 125'-0" (38.1m) long cylinder

- 15,000 psi internal pressure
Heads
- Flanged and dished
- Conical or Toriconical
- Flat or sloped
Heat Transfer Surface
- Dimpled jacket (preformed and inflated)
- Half pipe
- Internal coils
- Electric heaters
Supports
- Legs
- Lugs
- Skirts
- Chairs
- Saddles
Optional accessories
