Agitated Vessels for Chemical Processing
Agitated vessels for chemical processing are engineered mixing systems designed to facilitate chemical reactions, blending, dissolution, and other unit operations requiring controlled agitation. These vessels combine precise mixing capability with materials and construction suitable for the demanding environments of chemical manufacturing.
Why are Agitated Vessels Needed for Chemical Processing?
Chemical processing relies on agitated vessels for virtually every unit operation from raw material preparation through product finishing. Proper agitation ensures complete reactions, uniform blending, efficient heat and mass transfer, and consistent product quality. Roben Mfg provides vessels optimized for the full range of chemical processing requirements.

Agitated Vessels for Chemical Processing FAQs
What materials are common for chemical processing vessels?
Material selection depends on process chemistry. Stainless steel (304, 316) handles most applications. Hastelloy and nickel alloys serve aggressive acids. Glass-lined steel provides acid resistance with cleanability. We recommend materials based on corrosion data and process requirements.
How do you optimize agitation for chemical reactions?
Reaction optimization uses CFD modeling to ensure uniform concentration and temperature throughout the vessel. Proper mixing eliminates dead zones, controls heat transfer, and maintains catalyst suspension. We design agitation systems that maximize yield and selectivity for your specific chemistry.
