Why is it important to use a microchannel reactor for chemical processing
It is difficult to define which reactions are suitable for microchannel reactors . The characteristics of each chemical reaction are different. Microchannel reactors come in a wide variety of types. However, it is generally believed that 20% to 30% of the existing synthesis reactions can be technically modified through microchannel reactors. In addition, you can accept about 20-30% of technological processes that were considered hazardous in the past by using the microchannel reactor. Accordingly, there are currently close to 30%-50% of chemical processes that can be technologically enhanced using microchannel reactors. What are Microchannel reactors? A Microchannel reactor or Microfluidic reactor is a device in which chemical reactions take place in confinement with typical lateral dimensions below 1 mm. The most typical form of such confinement is microchannels. Micro reactors, in their simplest form, consist of a network of micro-channels in the range of 10 7 um to...
