A rotating processor is disclosed. The apparatus includes a hollow enclosed rotor, a rotor drive, internal space to hold particulate porous reaction or separations media which may be porous, lines connecting the center and periphera of the internal space with the exterior through fluid line seals, valving to control fluid flow, gradient makers, and a microprocessor to control and monitor the entire system. Optionally the rotor may be spun with the axis vertical or horizontal, and may be used as a conventional column at rest. The rotating processor permits any synthetic or separative process utilizing particulate or solid phase supports, or separations involving phases of different density to be accomplished under conditions which facilitate precise control of fluid flow and minimization of both micro- and macro-anomalous flow. A computer-controlled flat multiport valve system is also described to facilitate programmed scheduling of reagents through the rotor.
