The ACR block is used for chemical reactions. It can be supplied in stainless steel, Hastelloy, PTFE, PVDF and a variety of other materials. It is a modular system which provides the user with a wide variety of options. The cells can be fitted with filter elements between stages and the interstage channels can be reduced in size for very slow reactions. The cell sizes can be altered by fitting different sized agitators. For nth order reactions it is desirable to fit large agitators in the early cells to reduce the cell volumes. This improves temperature control and plug flow in the stages where the reaction rate is greatest.
A variety of agitator types can be used for different applications. Solid agitators are used where volume control is important. High shear agitators give very mixing performance for multi phase mixtures. Catalyst baskets are used to carry catalyst pellets. A tool for flow chemistry |
