Heating and Cooling Systems of a Batch Reactor

Image
  The batch reactor is a generic term for a type of vessel that is commonly used in the process industries. Its name is somewhat misleading because vessels of this type are used for a wide range of process operations including solids dissolution, product mixing, chemical reactions, batch distillation, crystallisation, liquid/liquid extraction, and polymerization. In some cases, they are not referred to as reactors, but rather by a name that reflects the function they play (such as crystallizer, or bioreactor).   Ablaze Glass Works is the leading Batch reactor manufacturer in Vadodara.   A batch reactor is typically made up of a storage tank with an agitator and an integrated heating/cooling system. The size of these vessels can range from less than 1 litre to more than 15,000 litres. They are commonly made of steel, stainless steel, glass-lined steel, glass, or an exotic alloy. Liquids and solids are typically charged through connections in the reactor's top cove...

Physical Characteristics of Borosilicate Glass that you should know

Image
  Borosilicate glass is a type of glass whose main constituents are silica and boron trioxide. Borosilicate glasses tend to have significantly low thermal expansion coefficients (≈3 × 10 −6 K −1 at 20 °C) which makes them highly resistant to the thermal shocks than any of the other common glasses. Such glass is subjected to less thermal stress and can withstand temperature differentials of about 165 °C (297 °F) without fracturing. It's commonly used to make reagent bottles and flasks, as well as lighting, electronics, and cookware.   If you are looking for the distinguished Borosilicate glass manufacturer , Ablaze Glass Works is the right place for you. Physical Characteristics: The most common type of borosilicate glass used for laboratory glassware has a very low thermal expansion coefficient (3.3 × 10 −6 K −1 ) that is about one-third that of ordinary soda-lime glass. This reduces material stresses caused by temperature gradients, making borosilicate a better cho...
