BUILD CATALYST & CHEMICAL BATCH REACTOR SYSTEMS
Batch reactor systems offer a reliable and flexible way to manufacture a wide range of chemical products, making them an ideal choice for many chemical manufacturers.
When To Use Batch Reactor Systems
Batch reactor systems are often used for chemical manufacturing with long reaction times because they allow for better control over the reaction conditions, particularly temperature, and pressure. Long reaction times are often required for complex chemical reactions, and maintaining stable reaction conditions over an extended period is crucial for achieving the desired product quality and yield.
In a batch reactor system, the reactants are loaded into the reactor vessel and allowed to react for a specified period. During this time, the temperature, pressure, and other reaction conditions can be closely monitored and adjusted as needed to ensure optimal product formation. This level of control is essential for reactions that require a longer reaction time, as even small variations in the reaction conditions can lead to significant changes in the product quality or yield.
Moreover, batch reactor systems are well-suited for chemical processes that require multiple steps or intermediate reactions. In such processes, the reaction mixture can be transferred to different reactors for subsequent reactions, allowing for better control over each reaction step.

Why Batch Reactor Systems from Applied Catalysts?
OUR PROCESS FOR
BUILDING BATCH REACTOR SYSTEMS
01
Discovery
Rapid changeover from one chemistry to another is a crucial factor for batch reactor systems, especially in a multi-product manufacturing facility where different products are produced in the same equipment. The ability to quickly and efficiently switch between different chemistries is vital to maximize the productivity of the equipment and reduce the downtime required for cleaning, maintenance, and setup.
Overall, rapid changeover in batch reactor systems enables manufacturers to be more agile and responsive to changing market demands, reduce costs, and improve product quality and environmental sustainability.
02
Identifying Milestones
Just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing is a production strategy that aims to minimize inventory costs and improve production efficiency by producing goods only when they are needed. In the context of batch reactor systems, JIT manufacturing means that the required quantities of the product are produced in batches only when the customer demand exists. This approach can significantly reduce inventory costs and minimize the amount of time that finished products are held in inventory, resulting in lower storage costs, reduced waste, and improved cash flow.
03
Project Proposal
We ensure that the production process can be scaled up from laboratory-scale to commercial-scale without any significant changes to the process conditions, equipment design, or operating procedures. This approach can help to reduce the risks and costs associated with process development and commercialization, as well as improve the efficiency and quality of the production process.
