Proper maintenance and care of stainless steel reactor vessels are crucial to ensure their longevity and optimal performance. This article provides an overview of best practices to effectively clean, inspect, and maintain these vessels, extending their service life and minimizing the risk of accidents or failures.
Regular Cleaning:
Regular cleaning of stainless steel reactor vessels is essential to remove any residual substances, sediments, or contaminants. Follow these steps for efficient cleaning:
a. Drain the vessel of any remaining substances.
b. Rinse the vessel with clean water to remove loose debris.
c. Use appropriate cleaning agents suitable for stainless steel surfaces.
d. Scrub the vessel surfaces gently with non-abrasive materials to avoid scratches.
e. Thoroughly rinse and dry the vessel to prevent moisture accumulation or corrosion.
Inspection for Damage:
Regular inspection helps identify any signs of damage, such as cracks, leaks, or deformations, which can compromise the vessel’s integrity. Inspect the following:
a. External surfaces: Check for visible signs of corrosion, discoloration, or dents.
b. Welded joints: Inspect for any cracks or signs of leakage.
c. Internal surfaces: Use specialized equipment to assess the condition of the interior surfaces for any wear, scaling, or pitting.
Preventive Maintenance:
Implement preventive maintenance measures to ensure the longevity of stainless steel reactor vessels:
a. Regularly monitor temperature and pressure levels during operation.
b. Adequately lubricate moving parts, such as agitators or valves, to prevent frictional wear.
c. Replace worn or damaged gaskets, seals, or O-rings promptly to prevent leaks.
d. Conduct pressure tests periodically to verify vessel integrity.
e. Comply with manufacturer-recommended maintenance procedures and schedules.
Safety Measures:
Prioritize safety when working with stainless steel reactor vessels:
a. Follow proper handling procedures, including using safety equipment and gear.
b. Ensure ventilation and appropriate gas detection systems in enclosed areas to prevent exposure to hazardous substances.
c. Train personnel on emergency protocols and response procedures.
d. Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of maintenance activities, inspections, and repairs.

Abstract: Oil deacidification is an important step in food processing, which aims to remove free fatty acids in oil and improve its quality and stability. Traditional deacidification methods have some limitations, such as low efficiency, high energy consumption, and loss of nutrients. In recent years, molecular distillation technology has gradually attracted attention as a new deacidification method. This article will introduce the application of molecular distillation in oil deacidification, including the principle, operation process and advantages, and focus on the outstanding advantages of Aishengke in molecular distillation technology.
Vitamins are products that are closely related to people's lives, and have become one of the main bulk products in the international pharmaceutical and health care products market. The amount of vitamin E is the largest, followed by vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D and so on. With the growth of economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for vitamin products will further increase, and people's requirements for their quality and grade will also further increase. Therefore, as an important separation technology in the production of many vitamins, molecular Distillation technology will also play an increasingly important role in the vitamin industry.
Glyceryl monostearate (GMS), abbreviated as monoglyceride, is produced from natural vegetable oils and fats. The active ingredient is purified by molecular distillation technology to more than 90%, also known as molecular distillation monoglyceride. It is the most widely used food Additives, safe to use in the production and processing of food, medicine, plastics, etc., account for more than half of the emulsifier consumption in the market.
The principle of molecular distillation is to make use of the different degrees of affinity between different molecules. By controlling the conditions such as temperature and pressure, the mixture begins to vaporize. Different components in the vapor form liquids in the condenser and are separated according to their boiling points. This distillation method not only has a good separation effect, but also can be repeatedly separated and purified, and is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical and other fields.
Molecular distillation is a common chemical method used to separate and purify compounds. In the pharmaceutical industry, molecular distillation is widely used in pharmaceutical purification. This article will focus on the application of molecular distillation in pharmaceutical purification and provide some specific examples.
Laboratory vacuum distillation equipment has undergone significant advancements in recent years, driven by the need for higher efficiency, improved safety, and enhanced user experience.
