Iran Inaugurates 2nd Phase of Plant for Manufacturing Reactors to Produce Chemicals
Mostafa Jannati, the managing director of the knowledge-based company, elaborated on applications of the glass-lined reactors to perform sensitive and corrosive chemical reactions, and said, “These reactors are used in production of chemicals, including raw materials for medicine, certain petrochemicals, raw materials for detergents, and pesticides.”
“There are 10 countries in the world which produce the equipment, and Iran is the 11th country which is able to manufacture glass-lined reactors. Also, in the field of technical know-how, only four countries have the technical know-how of making such reactors, and Iran is the fifth country that enjoys such a technical know-how,” he said.
“In addition to fully supplying the domestic needs for these equipment, we have managed to export these reactors to several countries, including India, Russia, Turkey, and Turkmenistan,” Jannati stated.
Glass Lined Reactors consist of a main body, top section with connecting nozzles and man way, baffles, dip pipes, agitator with mechanical seal, tank outlet valve and jacket for thermal transfer.
Smaller components such as bursting discs and sight glasses are also used frequently for pressure relief and visibility.
