The saponification kettle is a device used to complete the saponification reaction in the process of preparing lubricating, and it can also be used in many process processes in industries such as petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, etc, such as the saponification reaction of soap.
The saponification kettle generally consists of a reaction kettle,itator, heating system, control system, etc. The reaction kettle is the core of the device, which is used to load reactants and react; the agitator that the reactants are evenly mixed to improve the reaction efficiency; the heating system provides the necessary temperature conditions for the reaction; and the control system precisely monitors and adjusts the entire process.
Specifically, the saponification kettle may adopt spiral ribbon agitation, gear transmission, wall-mounted agitator, and jacketed circulation of hot oil heating, and can also be heated electrically. It usually has functions such as pressure and temperature detection, double windows, and double point temperature measurement. The structure is compact, and assembly inspection, use, and maintenance are all very convenient. The stirring can be self-rotating, can be co-rotating, and is equipped with wall-scraping to prevent materials from hanging on the wall, ensuring thorough and complete reaction. Moreover, the stirring frame is equipped with wear-resistant and elastic edge scrapers, which can effectively sc off the materials adhered to the kettle wall and bottom, improving the heat transfer efficiency.
In the saponification kettle, the grease lye are first added to the reaction kettle according to the proportion. Then, the agitator is used to fully mix the two, and the heating system starts to work provide suitable temperature for the reaction. During the reaction process, the control system will monitor the temperature and pressure in the reaction kettle in real time, and automatically adjust according to preset program to ensure that the reaction can proceed smoothly.
The saponification kettle is widely used in chemical, daily chemical and other fields, it is an important equipment for preparing lubricating grease, soap and other products. At the same time, it can also be used in other process processes that require saponification reaction.
To ensure the normal operation and extend the service life of the saponification kettle, it is necessary to regularly maintain and service it. includes cleaning the reaction kettle, checking the working status of the agitator and heating system, calibrating the control system, etc. At the same time, it is also to pay attention to the anti-corrosion treatment of the saponification kettle to avoid it being damaged by corrosion.
