Ukuqonda okubanzi kwe-reactor ukuthi iyisitsha esinezinto ezibonakalayo noma zamakhemikhali, futhi ngomklamo wesakhiwo kanye nokuhlelwa kwepharamitha yesiqukathi, ingakwazi ukufeza imisebenzi yokushisisa, ukuhwamuka, ukupholisa, kanye nesivinini esincane esidingwa inqubo. .
Ama-reactors asetshenziswa kakhulu emikhakheni efana ne-petroleum, amakhemikhali, irabha, izibulala-zinambuzane, odayi, imithi, nokudla. Ziyimikhumbi yokucindezela esetshenziselwa ukuqedela izinqubo ezifana ne-vulcanization, i-nitrification, i-hydrogenation, i-alkylation, i-polymerization, ne-condensation.
