PINCHED TUBE REACTOR – Unity Engineers

PINCHED TUBE REACTOR

The reactants (liquid/slurry) enter the tube reactor from a common inlet. Constrictions provided in the flow passage at designed intervals produce desired mixing while maintaining the PLUG flow.

REACTOR MOC: Austenitic SS, Hastelloy, Inconel, Monel, Titanium etc
Heating / Cooling: SOLENOID JACKET
Chemical Processes: Nitration, Sulfonation, N-Alkyla- tion, Halogenation,

ADVANTAGES:

1) Good heat transfer area per unit volume. 500 — 1000 m2 /m3 easily achievable.

2) Low pumping energy requirement.

3) Ability to generate Plug flow thereby avoiding mixing of reacted, unreacted and semi reacted material.

3) Easy Scalability of Process.

4) Ability to handle high pressure with assured safety.
