Furfural Batch Reactors to Make Diacetyl

Modification of Furfural Batch Reactors to Make Diacetyl 

As shown above, the formation of diacetyl in furfural reactors requires oxygen as supplied by the air introduced by the feed mechanisms of continuously operating reactors (shutters in the case of the ROSENLEW and ESCHER WYSS reactors, augers in the continuous QUAKER OATS process). By implication, this means that hatch reactors.
