A parallel chemical production system (110) producing a desired product by operating a plurality of reactors (124a-124d) in parallel. The fluidic properties of each of the reactors (124a-124d) is identical to the properties of a test reactor employed to determine conditions for producing the product, to facilitate scaling up production. In one embodiment, the production system (110) is configured such that at least one reactor (124a-124d) is always offline for servicing and use as a backup. If sensors (548a, 548b) detect less than optimal conditions in any reactor (124a-124d), the reactor (124a-124d) is taken offline and serviced while a previously designated backup reactor (124a-124d) is placed online to maintain continuous production. Another aspect involves arranging the reactors (234) in a concentric configuration to facilitate equal fluid distribution.
