Applications The Plate Reactor is ideal for a wide range of applications within the fields of pharmaceuticals, fine and specialty chemicals. To use for chemical liquid/liquid reactions, exothermic reactions and for reactions completed within minutes. The ART® Plate Reactor is a multipurpose reactor that is easily reconfigured to fit different reactions. The unit is easily opened for cleaning and inspections. Through the development of special injection devices, two liquid phase reactions are achieving high yields. The unit is also useful when there is a risk of solid formation, due to the large size channel. Design The ART PR49 consists of a series of plates. The core of each of these is a specially designed process channel plate, designed to promote optimum mixing and heat transfer performance. The ART PR49 is a direct extension of the ART PR37. In addition, different numbers of plates can be inserted and held together in a frame. By having a range of different plates and capabilities a flexible solution is achieved. Each plate has one process inlet and one process outlet port. Secondary ports that make it possible to add specific reactants or to insert measuring and monitoring devices are positioned along the length of the plate, and provide access to the main process part of the plates. The process part of the plates are connected in series to ensure the required residence time. The utility channels can be connected in series or in parallel, or supplied with different media, so that different chemical steps can be operated at different temperatures within the same reactor. The reactor frame holds the plates together in compression, thus sealing the fluid channels. This frame is spring-loaded, which makes sure that the correct sealing force is maintained at all times, even when extreme and highly variable temperatures are involved.

Open the catalog to page 1Performance The process channel in a plate features a serpentine path that combines multiple changes of the flow direction and channel width. This result in a considerably higher performance compared to stirred tank reactors and ensures good mixing and efficient heat transfer. In modern processing it is important that each individual molecule is exposed to an identical, carefully controlled processing environment in order to ensure consistent product quality and high yield. The channel design in the Plate Reactor provides an excellent plug flow, and residence time distribution. The high heat...
