Pilot and production pressure reactor
Model No: EPR-200mL to 5000mL
Pressure reactor for kilo labs and small-scale production
Reactor volume: 20 to 500 liter
Pressure: -1 (FV) to +200 bar
Temperature: -20 °C to +300 °C
Material: stainless steel, Hastelloy®
Other materials, pressures & temperatures are available
Essenton Pilot Plants are built for pressure reactions as well as for reactions under full vacuum. Different technologies and materials are used, depending on the requested process and process media.
Pilotclave pressure reactors range from 50 - 500 liter and are all customized. To quote such systems we require detailed specifications. Safety is important with such larger scale systems, especially when doing hydrogenations and other reactions under higher pressure. The degree of automation and process control vary from simple data collection to complete automation of the system. In most cases, the reaction vessels are jacketed steel or Hastelloy® reactors.
The pilotclave pressure reactors are used for scale up and smaller productions in pilot plants and kilo labs.
A URS (User Requirement Specification) and PID are very important for basic and detail engineering and the success of such projects and plants.

Essenton bottom valves are very compact, available for different operating conditions and functions. Solenoid bottom valves with a pneumatic actuator are used for automated opening / closing with signal feedback of the status.
Needle valves, ball valves
Needle valves and ball valves for low and high pressures are installed on the reactor head as needed. Solenoid needle and ball valves with pneumatic actuators are used for automated opening / closing with signal feedback of the status.
3, Catalyst baskets
Catalyst testing and screening in pressure reactors
Catalyst testing, catalyst screening
Catalyst testing covers several types of research such as catalyst effectiveness, yield, activation, lifetime and regeneration.
The type of catalyst baskets varies depending on the catalyst being used, the interaction with the chemistry, the temperature, the pressure and the number of catalysts in the basket. Exposure to the reactants can be done through a stationary catalyst bed or a spinning basket.
Our special accessories offer solutions for more complex problems in pressure reactions in the field of catalyst research.
