Agitators for the Chemical Industry
Engineered Solutions for Reactors & Critical Processes
Chemical processing is unforgiving. Standard equipment fails when faced with aggressive acids, high temperatures, or non-Newtonian fluids.
G&G Chemical Agitators are engineered to be the heart of your reactor, designed not just to mix, but to optimize reaction kinetics, maximize heat transfer coefficients, and ensure absolute safety in hazardous environments.
🧪 Aggressive Media & Corrosion
Handling H₂SO₄, HCl, or hot caustic soda requires specialized metallurgy. We don't just use stainless steel.
- Exotic Alloys: Titanium, Hastelloy® C-276, Super Duplex (2507), 904L.
- Coatings: Ebonite (hard rubber) or Halar (ECTFE) lining for cost-effective resistance against strong acids.
💥 Process Safety & ATEX
Chemical plants are often hazardous zones. Our equipment ensures zero ignition sources and zero leakage of toxic gases.
- Certified: Full ATEX compliance for Zone 1/2 (Gas) and Zone 21/22 (Dust) environments, inside and outside the tank.
🌡️ Complex Rheology & Heat Transfer
Mixing high-viscosity polymers or maximizing heat exchange in jacketed reactors requires specific impeller designs.
- High Viscosity: Anchor or Helical Ribbon impellers for products >50,000 cP.
- Heat Transfer: High-flow turbines positioned to sweep the reactor walls and improve the U-value.
🛡️ Critical Sealing Technology
In a pressurized reactor handling toxic chemicals, the mechanical seal is the most critical component. We supply high-end solutions to guarantee containment:
- Double Mechanical Seals (Cartridge): Back-to-back or tandem arrangements.
- Barrier Fluid Systems (API Plans): Including thermosyphons (Plan 52/53) to pressurize and cool the seal, ensuring no process fluid escapes to the atmosphere.
Typical Chemical Applications
🧴 Polymers & Resins
High-viscosity blending in polymerization reactors using close-clearance impellers.
🌾 Fertilizers & Acids
Reaction tanks for phosphoric acid and NPK fertilizer production, requiring extreme
