Luncheon Technology Spotlight Presentation: New Heat Exchanger Reactors For Flow Chemistry

Eric Aubay, CEO, KHiMii

The offer for flow chemistry equipment is growing, but there are very few reactors that can be used for flow hydrogenation at high pressure, especially at large scale. The objective of this talk will be to present innovative heat exchanger reactor that can be used for flow hydrogenation under fixed bed catalyst or with catalytic static mixers. These reactors can also be used for low temperature reactions or other liquid-gas reactions. This lecture will finally present a new field of application for these reactors coupled with an ultrasonic source to manage solids, that can be either introduced in the reactor or that are formed during the reaction.
