Agitated reactors (Autoclaves or stirred reactor) by PDC come in a broad range of alloys, capacities, and design pressures. We manufacture custom-designed stirred reactors for a variety of process reactions. Our stirred reactors are used in laboratories, pilot plants, and small-scale production facilities.
