Flow Reactor & Systems
Continuous Stirred Tank Reactors (CSTRs) are agitated, tank-like reactors that are widely used in chemical processes for reactions that require continuous input of reactants and removal of products. The reactor maintains a uniform composition and temperature through constant mixing. Ideal CSTRs operate at steady state with perfect mixing, leading to the same conditions throughout the reactor. These are an excellent choice for large tonnage continuous processes, with medium speed to slow reactions and especially for liquid systems. They can handle solids and viscous fluids without problems and can be easily cascaded to give PFR like behaviour.
The CorFLO™ reactor is particularly suited for mixing-intensive processes at commercial scale.
The CorFLO™ is a passive mixing device, meaning the energy for mixing and enhanced heat transfer is derived from the kinetic head of the flowing fluid itself.
It consists of a number of corrugated tubes, each embedded with kinetics-type static mixers.
These provide unparalleled mixing and heat transfer even at low flow rates, along with very narrow residence time distributions.
Reactions: Excellent for nitrations, ozonolysis, and especially suitable for reactions
Fixed Bed Reactor Systems – From Pilot to Industrial Scale
High-performance systems engineered for high-temperature, high-pressure applications
Our Fixed Bed Reactors are specially designed for demanding catalytic and thermal processes involving gas or liquid phase reactants.
Suitable for catalyst screening to biomass gasification and everything in between.
LabFLO™ is a convenient reactor for lab-scale proof-of-concept studies. It consists of a 1 ml micro-mixer and a 10 ml residence coil. These components are immersed in a circulating fluid bath to maintain process temperature. The LabFLO™ reactor can carry out reactions including nitration, sulfonation, diazotization, oxidation, and reduction — all using microliter-scale raw materials.
