Used Reactors for Sale

At Phoenix Equipment, we are proud to be one of the leading providers of new and used reactors. Reactors are vessels that contain three parts: the tank or body, an agitator, and a cooling or heating system. The right chemical reactor can dramatically improve your business operations, and by buying a used or reconditioned system, you can enjoy significant cost savings in the process.

How Reactors Work

Reactors are manufactured in a variety of materials to withstand the corrosiveness of mixed chemicals. We offer stainless steel, high alloy, glass-lined steel, carbon steel hydrogen and high-pressure reactors for a variety of applications including:

  • Chemical reactions
  • Product mixing
  • Batch distillation
  • Solids dissolution
  • Polymerization
  • Liquid extraction
  • Catalyst functions

Reactors can range in size from less than 1 liter to over 15,000 liters. The agitator is mounted centrally via the center opening, on top of the vessel. It attaches to the overhead drive unit and contains impeller blades inside of the vessel. Since products within the reactor will either absorb or emit heat during processing, a cooling pipe or jacket is used to keep the contents at a consistent temperature. Liquids are typically discharged out through the bottom, while gases and vapors are released through the top connections.
