Good at reactions...please help!!

(OP)
Hi, in my job there is a glass finish reactor and I would like to know what reactions could take place in there. The characteristics of the reactor are the folowwings:
    - temperautre: -15 to 175 degrees celsius
    - pressure: -1 to 4 bars
    - pH from 0 to 12.5
    - there is pH control and solvents are accepted
The reactions that we know are:
  .saponification
  .organic colorants reactions
  .oxidations
  .esterifications
Some others?????????

RE: Good at reactions...please help!!

Sorry but this question makes absolutely no sense.
Are you asking if your reactor could be used for some other purpose?  If so yes if properly equipped for it.  Such as acidification, neutralizations, extractions, on and on.
Or are you asking about some possible side reaction that you may or may have in this vessel?  If so you have provided nowhere near enough information.  Start with reactants added.
