Microreactor Technology as an Integrated Method for Producing Fine Chemicals

摘要

Microreactor Technology enables processes to be run in a continuous manner using a minimal quantity of reagent. Thus, it permits the rapid and scalable development of continuous processes in the fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Under such circumstances, advantages are associated in a first instance from the continuous way of operation and in a second instance to the micro structure itself such as the good thermal control. It is important to differentiate from where the advantage is coming from because it will significantly influence the scale up strategy for larger productions.
