With glass-lined reactor vessels and thermal control units

Pfaudler, a global supplier of glass lined reactors and modular process systems for the pharmaceutical industry, has won a contract to supply 43 glass-lined reactor vessels and nine thermal control units (TCUs) to a new pharmaceutical plant in Southern China. Financial details were not disclosed.

Pfaudler-Balfour, based in Leven, Fife, Scotland has designed the TCU heating and cooling systems (design range of -29/+200°C) in close consultation with Robbins & Myers Process Solutions Group company Suzhou Pfaudler, based in China, which is manufacturing glass-lined reactor vessels (ranging from 50 to 3000L) and building the TCUs.

Pfaudler says its design-build capability and proven track record helped secure this ‘significantly large order’ for process plant equipment.

With manufacturing sites in the UK, Germany, India, China, US, Mexico and Brazil, Pfaudler supplies modular systems that incorporate products and materials from the Robbins & Myers Process Solutions Group, including reactors, condensers, utility systems, columns, evaporators and heat exchangers.
