LAIZHOU, CHINA – Temperature control is the heartbeat of any chemical reaction. Whether you are producing alkyd resins, adhesives, or plastic intermediates, choosing the wrong jacket type for your reactor can lead to ruined batches, wasted energy, or equipment failure.

As a leading global supplier, LAIZHOU KEDA CHEMICAL MACHINERY CO., LTD. has released an engineering guide comparing the three most common reactor jacket designs to help chemical plants optimize their ROI.

1. Conventional (Outer) Jackets

Best for high-pressure reactions inside the vessel but lower pressure in the jacket. It provides a simple, cost-effective solution for standard heating and cooling cycles using steam or thermal oil.

2. Limpet Coil (Half-Pipe) Jackets

Ideal for high-temperature applications and when utilizing fluid heating media (like hot water or oil). The split-pipe design allows for high fluid velocity, which significantly improves heat transfer rates while reducing the overall weight of the stainless steel reactor.

3. Dimple Jackets

The ultimate choice for saving space and managing high jacket pressures. The dimpled structure allows for thinner vessel walls without sacrificing structural strength, making it a highly efficient choice for large-capacity chemical reactors.

KEDA’s Engineering Advantage

Every chemical reactor manufactured by LAIZHOU KEDA undergoes rigorous finite element analysis (FEA) to ensure the chosen jacket style perfectly matches the customer's thermal dynamics.
