Journal ArticleDOI

Microstructured reactors for catalytic reactions

TL;DR: In this article, a review of catalytic reactions performed in microstructured reactors is presented, which are particularly suited for highly exothermic and fast reactions allowing temperature control and isothermal operation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liquid-liquid two-phase flow patterns and mass transfer characteristics in rectangular glass microreactors

TL;DR: In this article, the shape of the interface between the immiscible liquids was controlled by a competition between the viscous forces and the local interfacial tension, and the mass transfer coefficients for parallel and slug flow were determined using instantaneous eutralisation (acidbase) reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gas–liquid and liquid–liquid mass transfer in microstructured reactors

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive overview of gas-liquid and liquid-liquid mass transfer in microstructured ReReactors (MSR) is presented, where different dimensionless parameters used to analyze mass transfer are discussed.
BookDOI

Micro process engineering : a comprehensive handbook

TL;DR: The role of micro-reactor technology in Chemical Process Design Reaction and Process System Analysis, Miniaturization and Intensification Strategies Principles and Guidelines for Selection of Micro-structured Devices for Mixing and Reaction Catalyst Development, Screening and Optimization SENSING, ANALYSIS, and Control Microtechnology and Process Analytics Optical In-Line Spectroscopy in Microchemical Processes On-Line Monitoring of Reaction Kinetics in Microreactors Using Mass Spectrometry and Micro-NMR Spectrogrogramming Automation and Control of Microprocess Systems MICRORE
Journal ArticleDOI

In-situ surface and gas phase analysis for kinetic studies under transient conditions The catalytic hydrogenation of CO2

TL;DR: In this paper, a reaction mechanism for carbon dioxide methanation is proposed, including the formation step of the formates through a carbonate species, which is fixed on the support, in equilibrium with a active formate species on the interface metal-support.
