Application of Mass Transfer in Slug Flow to Organic Synthesis

Application of Mass Transfer in Slug Flow to Organic Synthesis 

Enhanced mass transfer by internal circulation flow in slug flow can also be used in biphasic reactions. Owing to many operating parameters such as flow rate, volume ratio of two phases and channel diameter that can be adjusted flexibly in slug flow, the 

Microstructured devices for extraction divided into three groups according to fluid operations have been reviewed. The advantages and disadvantages of the device for each fluid operation are summarized in Table 12.3. Although several extraction 

The microstructured extraction devices are attractive for process intensification, since they allow precisely controlled and rapid extraction and the small dimensions permit their flexible use in multiple-stage processes including the repetition of reaction and extraction operations. These advantages are effective for reaction 

Parallel flow Instant separation of immiscible phase after extraction Rapid extraction requires narrow channel, which leads to high pressure drop in microchannel
