Comparative experiments in semi-batch operation

Comparative experiments are carried out between the SCISR and the STR for further verifying the good performance of the SCISR. Both the reactors are operated in semibatch mode and under the same optimized conditions as before. The structure and dimensions of the experimental reactors have been described in Section 13.2. The size distributions of the particles in the precipitates from the two reactors are illustrated in Fig. 13.2. Obviously, the product from the SCISR is finer with a narrower size distribution, i.e., more uniform in size. It should be noted that the effective volume of the experimental SCISR is six times that of the STR, suggesting the scales favor the 

these results indicate an obvious difference between the performances of the two kinds of reactor.
