Application Of Oil Mold Temperature Controller In Reactor

Hengde Company is a leader in the field of industrial temperature control and has long focused on the research and development and manufacturing of mold temperature controllers. With advanced technology and rich experience, Hengde mold temperature controllers have excellent performance, stability and accuracy, providing reliable solutions for the temperature control of reactors, and are widely used in reactor systems in many industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and food.

1. The working principle of oil mold temperature controller in reactor

As a temperature control device for reactors, oil mold temperature controllers are widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries, mainly for precise control of the temperature in reactors. Its working principle is to use heat transfer oil as a heat transfer medium, use an electric heater to heat the heat transfer oil, and then use a circulating pump to transport the heated heat transfer oil to the jacket or coil of the reactor to exchange heat with the material in the reactor, thereby achieving control of the temperature of the material in the reactor.

2. The following are the application scenarios of reactor oil mold temperature controller in different industries

(1) Chemical industry

• Polymerization reaction: In the polymerization reaction of polymer materials such as synthetic resins and rubber, the temperature in the reactor has a crucial impact on the molecular weight, molecular structure and performance of the polymer. Hengde mold temperature controller can accurately control the reaction temperature to ensure that the polymerization reaction proceeds at a predetermined rate and direction, thereby improving the quality and stability of the product. For example, when producing polyethylene, the temperature of the reactor can be stably controlled within a suitable range by the mold temperature controller, which can make the molecular chain distribution of polyethylene more uniform and improve its tensile strength and toughness.

• Esterification reaction: Esterification reaction is usually an exothermic reaction, and the heat generated by the reaction needs to be removed in time to control the reaction rate and balance. The cooling function of the mold temperature controller can quickly remove the reaction heat and maintain the temperature in the reactor stable. At the same time, at the beginning of the reaction, the mold temperature controller can quickly heat the reactor to the temperature required for the reaction to accelerate the start of the reaction. For example, in the process of producing ethyl acetate, the mold temperature controller can ensure that the reaction is carried out at the optimal temperature and increase the yield of ester.

(2) Pharmaceutical industry

• Drug synthesis: The drug synthesis process has extremely strict requirements on temperature, and different reaction steps may require different temperature conditions. Hengde oil mold temperature controller can accurately adjust the temperature of the reactor according to the requirements of the pharmaceutical process to ensure the accuracy and repeatability of the drug synthesis reaction. For example, in the synthesis process of antibiotics, the oil mold temperature controller can control the reaction temperature within a very small error range to ensure the purity and activity of the drug.

• Crystallization process: The crystallization process of the drug directly affects the crystal form, particle size and purity of the drug. The oil mold temperature controller can promote the crystallization process of the drug by accurately controlling the cooling rate and temperature of the reactor, and obtain the ideal crystal form and particle size distribution. This is of great significance for improving the stability and bioavailability of the drug.

(3) Food industry

• Oil hydrogenation: During the oil hydrogenation process, the temperature in the reactor will affect the rate of the hydrogenation reaction and the saturation of the product. The oil mold temperature controller can accurately control the reaction temperature so that the oil hydrogenation reaction proceeds according to the predetermined degree and produces hydrogenated oil products that meet quality standards.

• Food additive synthesis: The synthesis of food additives requires strict control of reaction conditions, and temperature is one of the key factors. The oil mold temperature controller can provide a stable temperature environment for the reactor to ensure the quality and safety of the synthesis of food additives.

3. Application advantages

(1) Accurate temperature control

The oil mold temperature controller can achieve high-precision temperature control, usually reaching a temperature difference of ±1°C, which is particularly important for chemical and pharmaceutical processes that require strict control of reaction temperature. At the same time, the oil mold temperature controller can be customized according to different process requirements to meet various complex temperature control requirements and is suitable for different types of reactors and production processes. Whether it is chemical products, medicines or foods, they can all benefit from a stable temperature environment.

(2) Improve product quality

Accurate temperature control can make the chemical reaction in the reactor more stable and controllable, reduce the occurrence of side reactions, and thus improve the purity, quality and consistency of the product.

(3) Improve production efficiency

The heat transfer oil has a high thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity. The oil mold temperature controller can quickly heat and cool the reactor and shorten the reaction cycle. At the same time, stable temperature control can reduce equipment downtime and product defective rate caused by temperature fluctuations, and improve production efficiency and equipment utilization.

(4) Reduce energy consumption

Hengde oil mold temperature controller adopts advanced energy-saving technology and intelligent control system, which can automatically adjust heating and cooling power according to the actual temperature demand of the reactor, avoid energy waste, and reduce energy consumption costs in the production process.

(5) Extend equipment life

A stable temperature environment can reduce the thermal stress caused by temperature changes in the reactor, reduce the risk of equipment wear and damage, extend the service life of the reactor, and reduce equipment maintenance and replacement costs.

4. Application Case

When a chemical company was producing a new type of plastic additive, the original temperature control equipment could not meet the temperature accuracy requirements of the reactor, resulting in unstable product quality and a high defective rate. After the company introduced Hengde oil mold temperature controller, the oil mold temperature controller was able to accurately control the temperature in the reactor within the range of ±1℃. The quality of the product has been significantly improved, and the defective rate has been reduced from the original 15% to less than 3%. At the same time, the production cycle has been shortened by 20% and energy consumption has been reduced by 15%, bringing significant economic benefits to the company.

5. Selection and maintenance recommendations for oil mold temperature controllers

1. Temperature range: Select an appropriate oil mold temperature controller according to the temperature range required by the reactor.
2. Heating and cooling power: Select appropriate heating and cooling power according to the volume of the reactor and process requirements.
3. Control system: Select a mold temperature controller with high-precision control and a good user interface.
4. Safety function: Ensure that the oil mold temperature controller has the necessary safety protection functions.
