1. According to the heating/cooling method, reactors can be divided into electric heating, hot water heating, thermal oil circulation heating, far-infrared heating, external (internal) coil heating, jacket cooling, and internal coil cooling. The choice of heating method mainly depends on the heating/cooling temperature required for the chemical reaction and the amount of heat required.
2. According to the material of the reactor body, reactors can be divided into carbon steel reactors, stainless steel reactors, glass-lined reactors (enamel-lined reactors), and steel-lined reactors.
Stainless Steel Reactors: Suitable for high-temperature and high-pressure chemical reaction experiments in petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, metallurgical, scientific research, and universities. Used to complete processes such as hydrolysis, neutralization, crystallization, distillation, evaporation, storage, hydrogenation, hydrocarbonation, polymerization, condensation, heating and mixing, and isothermal reactions. It can achieve high stirring effect for viscous and particulate substances.
Glass-lined Reactors: Widely used in petroleum, chemical, food, pharmaceutical, pesticide, and scientific research industries.
PE-lined Steel Reactors: Suitable for acids, alkalis, salts, and most alcohols. Suitable for the refining of liquid food and pharmaceuticals. It is an ideal replacement for rubber-lined, fiberglass, stainless steel, titanium steel, enamel, and welded plastic sheets.
