PULSED FLOW REACTOR AND USE THEREOF

A planar flow reactor comprising a straight planar process channel, a flow generator configured to generate a pulsatile flow within the process channel, the pulsatile flow comprising a unidirectionalnet flow through the process channel and an oscillatory flow superposed on said net flow, and a plurality of static mixing elements disposed within the process channel and configured to locally splitand recombine said flow. A straight planar process channel enables the generation of a flow pattern that is largely independent of the width of the process channel, meaning that the throughput may beincreased by increasing the width without significantly affecting the residence time distribution or the flow behaviour. Furthermore, by creating a pulsatile flow within the process channel, turbulence and/or chaotic fluid flows may be generated even at low net flow rates, i.e. low net Reynolds numbers. 一种平面流反应器包括：基本直的平面处理通道；流发生器，所述流发生器被构造成在所述处理通道内产生脉动流，所述脉动流包括通过所述处理通道的单向净流和叠加在所述净流上的振荡流；以及多个静态混合元件，所述多个静态混合元件被布置在所述处理通道内并且被构造
