Description

10000 Kgs Reaction Vessel commonly designated as a 10-Ton Reactor is a large-scale, heavy-duty industrial process reactor engineered for high-throughput batch or continuous chemical manufacturing, where “10000 Kgs” refers to the total structural weight of the complete assembly, including shell, jacket, agitator system, drive, supports, instrumentation, and insulation. This size is standard in petrochemical plants, polymer facilities, fertilizer units, and large pharmaceutical API production lines, delivering robust performance under extreme temperature, pressure, and corrosive conditions with full automation and safety compliance.
