OPTIMUM SOLUTIONS FOR THE MOST DEMANDING REACTION PROCESSES
Efficient reaction processes in LÖDIGE machines provides an innovative solution for chemical synthesis and process optimisation. Our systems enable you to carry out chemical reactions in a precise and controlled manner. Solid or liquid reactants can be optimally converted into one or more products with new chemical and/or physical properties.
Discover the efficiency and versatility of our reaction processes and optimise your production with LÖDIGE solutions.
APPLICATIONS IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES
Our reaction processes and reactors are used in a wide range of industries, including the chemical, plastics and polysaccharide industries. Our horizontal reactors are particularly suitable for chemical reactions with solids because they use a mechanically generated fluid bed to ensure excellent mass and heat transfer.
Organic pigments, for example, can be produced directly without passing through a suspension. Polymerisation is particularly well suited to a horizontal mixing reactor because, unlike vertical mixers, it is insensitive to changes in phase state.
THE BEST FOR YOU: A FULL RANGE OF SERVICE
Advice, machines and service - at LÖDIGE you get everything from one source to offer you the greatest possible added value. Customised, project-specific design and precise adaptation to your requirements is our strength. Work with us to fine tune your process.
LÖDIGE REACTORS
Our LÖDIGE reactors are designed for efficient use and outstanding performance. They not only provide the fastest mixing of reactants, but also avoid local overconcentrations and are easy to handle.
Our reactors also allow reactions to be carried out without temperature gradients in the reaction zone. This ensures better conversion of the components, resulting in higher yields and the highest purity of the end product. They also support multi-phase processes such as reaction, heating, drying, granulation and cooling.
Reactions in LÖDIGE machines can be performed in both homogeneous and heterogeneous phases and in principle in all combinations - solid, liquid, gaseous.

ALL-IN-ONE PROCESS
The entire process chain in one machine - this is possible with LÖDIGE reactors. Thanks to their versatility, complex process steps such as mixing, liquid addition, heating, evaporation, reaction, drying, cooling, granulation and coating can be carried out in a single machine.
For example, liquid reactants are first mixed and reacted by adding additives. The liquid component is then evaporated to form a solid, which is then dried, cooled and granulated. These steps are carried out without interruption for storage, transport or cleaning.
