Glass lined reactor – AE type
Glass lined reactors are at the core of production activities wherever a reaction is run under aggressive acid conditions.
Our state-of-the-art glass lined reactors ensure quality, safety and reliability, satisfying multiple requirements such as:
- Efficient and reproducible heat transfer
- Effective and reliable mixing systems
- Corrosion resistance
- No contamination
They are designed and manufactured in compliance with DIN standards.
