FLOW REACTOR WITH PINCHED PIPE SECTIONS FOR MIXING AND HEAT TRANSFER

摘要

A pinched pipe flow reactor to prevent back-mixing and to enhance heat transfer is disclosed herein. The reactor comprises a pipe having at least two converging / pinched section [102] connected to each other by a non-pinched section [101], characterised in that axis of the each converging / pinch section is between 0° to 90° and arranged in different perpendicular planes to the pinch. A method of enhancing mixing, mass transfer and heat transfer comprising the pinched pipe flow reactor is further disclosed.
