Situations when glass reactor should stop working immediately

Glass reactor is an ideal equipment for modern chemical sample experiments, biopharmaceuticals and new material synthesis, and is widely used in laboratories. Generally, there are single-layer glass reactors and double-layer jacketed glass reactors.

If the glass reactor has the following situations, the experiment should be stopped immediately:

1. Too much feed: If the feed is too much, the internal pressure of the reactor may be too high, thus affecting the safe operation of the reactor.

2. When the working pressure, medium temperature or wall temperature of the glass reactor exceeds the specified value, and measures taken cannot effectively control it, the reaction should be stopped immediately to avoid equipment damage or safety accidents.

3. When the safety accessories of the glass reactor fail, such as inaccurate or ineffective pressure gauges and thermometers, the operation must also be stopped, because these accessories are important configurations to ensure the safety of operators.

4. When the connecting pipes or fasteners of the glass reactor are damaged, it may affect the sealing performance of the reactor, thereby increasing the risk of leakage. Therefore, the operation must also be stopped immediately.

When operating glass reactor, strictly abide by the safety operating procedures and pay close attention to the working status of the reactor. Once any abnormal situation is found, appropriate safety measures should be taken immediately, including stopping heating, closing the feed valve, emergency shutdown, etc.
