For essential chemical reactions, mixing, and heat transfer in manufacturing processes, industrial reactors are critical equipment across industries. With over 47 years of process equipment expertise, IPP offers one of the world’s largest selections of used reactors, sourced from 20 complete plant sites and included within our inventory of over 15,000 ready-to-ship pieces of equipment. By choosing used reactors from IPP, companies gain immediate access to high-quality vessels while reducing capital investment and lead times.
Reactors are specialized vessels where raw materials undergo chemical or biochemical reactions under controlled conditions. Available in numerous designs—jacketed, agitated, pressure-rated, or lined—reactors are tailored to meet process demands such as mixing, temperature control, pressure regulation, and corrosion resistance.
Reactor construction is selected to withstand process conditions, such as pressure, temperature, and chemical exposure:
