Description
In flow chemistry, a chemical reaction is run in a continuously flowing stream rather than in batch production. Interest in it and associated technologies increased during the past few years, as it has become a new tool for chemists and an alternative to conventional laboratory practices. The use of such innovative devices, though, can lead to performances that differ from those obtained with traditional lab equipment in terms of conversion, yield, and electivity. Scientific knowledge about these continuous reactors and their potential is often missing, leading to a number of fundamental questions that this book answers. Covering industrial and pilot scale operations, and focused on new reactor technologies, Flow Chemistry: Engineering Aspects and Applications integrates chemistry and chemical engineering approaches for applying flow chemistry practices to industrial processes. Simple concepts – illustrated by exercises to make them understandable – feature in the text. The first part of the book deals with fundamentals of chemical reactor engineering and is followed by a section about applications that includes industry case studies and biocatalytic processes. In the last part, the authors look prospectively and focus on micro technology / activation coupling techniques. Written as a guide for chemists and chemical engineers, Flow Chemistry also includes: Covers mixing, chemical synthesis, chemical effluents treatments, products separation, and activation coupling Links chemical synthesis and other unit operations Discusses applications for industrial and pilot scale operations
