Hastelloy reactors are suitable for all kind of reactions. However, Hastelloy reactors are only used in special cases, due to its high cost.
Thanks to the excellent corrosive properties of Hastelloy, which resists wet chlorine, various oxidizing chlorides, chloride solutions, sulfuric acid and oxidizing salts, as well as good corrosion resistance in mild and medium-temperature hydrochloric acid. ( Check
the Hastalloy introduction for details).
Hastelloy reactors' most significant property is the application in corrosive conditions.
In theory, Hastelloy reactors are suitable for all kind of reactions. However, they are only used in special cases, due to its high cost.
Hastelloy alloy reactors have 7 special uses:
Organic Synthesis Experiments
The reagents with strong acids, strong bases, or oxidizing are always used in organic chemical synthesis. Hastelloy reactors can effectively resist these corrosive substances, protect the equipment from damage, and thereby ensure the safety of the experiment and the purity of the products.
Catalytic Reaction Research
 |
It can withstand the reaction conditions of high temperature and high pressure, providing a stable reaction environment for the catalyst, which is conducive to maximizing the activity of the catalyst. This is crucial for researching new catalysts or improving the catalytic process.
Case example:
The left picture is the 3000L high temprature hastelloy reactor for catalytic reaction made by WHGCM. Please click the its introduction page for details. |
Petrochemical Field
In the deep processing of petroleum refining and petrochemical products, the reactor can handle raw materials containing corrosive components such as sulfides and halogens, and is suitable for various processes such as conversion, cracking, and hydrogenation.
Preparation of Fine Chemicals
In the synthesis process of fine chemicals such as dyes, fragrances, and pesticide intermediates, Hastelloy alloy reactors can provide the necessary corrosion resistance and cleanliness to meet the production requirements of high-quality chemicals.
Pharmaceutical Process Development
In the research and development and production of drugs, the synthesis of many active ingredients involves complex chemical reactions. This reactor can ensure that the reaction is carried out in a pollution-free environment and meets GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards.
Laboratory Research and Development
Whether in university research institutions or enterprise R & D centers, due to its wide range of applications, convenient operation, and good sealing performance, it is often used in basic research and applied research in fields such as new materials, new energy, and biotechnology.
Environmental Engineering
 |
It can be used to handle media containing harmful chemical substances in environmental projects such as wastewater and waste gas treatment, such as the removal of heavy metals and degradation of organic pollutants.
Case example:
We have made a 100L horizontal hastelloy reactor for a film material manufacturer. Please click the introduction page for details. |
