Reactor Systems

Pilon’s Reactor Systems guarantee best process performance in labs, pilot plants / kilo labs and production phases. From laboratory synthesis through scale-up to production; Pilon supports on every stage of product development.
Let it be any MOC, any pressure, any temperature or any process feeds; we support all our clients in development of simple to complex reaction systems. Our certified and tested reactor systems go through standard manufacturing processes & stringent quality norms. Quality dossiers include designing GADs to test certificates to all performance tests results carried out internally before dispatch by Team Pilon.
For carrying out a large number of chemical reactions working at various temperature and pressure conditions, Pilon provides reactor systems of different kinds, ranging from simple batch reactor systems to complex systems of CSTR’s, packed beds, fixed beds and trickle bed reactors.

  1. Design and manufacturing of Batch reactor systems by Pilon Engineering is done in-house.

  1. Fixed Bed reactors designed and manufactured by Pilon Engineering have high conversion rate per catalyst weight compared to other catalytic reactors.
  2. Also known as FBR, these are mainly tubular reactors with unidirectional, bi-directional or multi-directional flow filled with catalyst pellets with reactants flowing through the bed and being converted into products.
  3. At Pilon, we provide multiple catalyst configurations including: one large bed, several horizontal beds, several parallel packed tubes, and multiple beds in their own shells.
  4. Various configurations may be adapted depending on the need to maintain temperature control within the system.
  5. You may have pellets of various shapes and sizes i.e. spherical, cylindrical, or randomly shaped pellets. They range from 0.25 cm to 2.0 cm in diameter. Pilon helps accommodate them all.

  1. Packed bed Reactor is a hollow tube, pipe, or other vessel that is filled with a packing material suitable for that particular application or service.
  2. The packing can be randomly filled with small objects like Raschig rings, Saddle packings, Pall rings or else it can be a specifically designed structured packing. We at Pilon help you achieve your packing goals.
  3. Our Packed beds may also contain catalyst particles or adsorbents such as zeolite pellets, granular activated carbon, etc.
  4. The purpose of a packed bed is typically to improve contact between two phases in a chemical or similar process.
  5. Packed beds can be used in a chemical reactor, a distillation process, or a scrubber, but packed beds have also been used to store heat in chemical plants.
