Jacketed vessels
, an innovation in science and technology, are gaining popularity across various industries due to their versatility and efficiency. These vessels provide an optimal solution for maintaining precise temperature control, imperative to many chemical reactions and processes.The essence of jacketed vessels lies in their classification. Structurally speaking, they consist of a container enclosed in a ‘jacket’ through which a heat exchange fluid flows, regulating the inner temperature.
The most commonly used type is the stainless steel Jacketed Vessel, renowned for its robustness and longevity. This type exquisitely manages heat transfer, size, and pressure rating. It uses fluid media like water and oil to facilitate heat transfer between the jacket and the container. Another notable type is the Conventional Jacketed Vessel, which has a second shell installed over part of the vessel, creating an annular space. The flow of a heating or cooling medium through this annular space enables flexible temperature control.

Jacketed vessels
have been used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries for decades. They are designed to facilitate various types of chemical processes by providing a controlled environment that produces the desired temperature, pressure, and reaction conditions.Jacketed vessels are named after the outer jacket they are surrounded by, which is an insulating layer designed to maintain the temperature inside the reactor. There are two types of jackets in jacketed vessels: external and internal jackets. External jackets are insulated with insulation materials such as rock wool, and internal jackets are designed to provide better heat transfer and mixing capabilities. There are two common types of jacketed vessels: glass and stainless steel.
