Scale-down of the Jet Zone Loop Reactor: Development of a Screening Tool for Chemical Reactions
The jet zone loop reactor (JZR) is a high performance loop reactor in which it was shown on different reactions that the use of multiscale transport phenomena leads to a significant increase in the space-time yield and selectivity. As the use of a JZR in a semi-industrial scale means a high effort, the development of a comparable screening tool in a laboratory scale is the logical step in which the new technology can be estimated easily and quickly. Experimental hydrodynamic studies of the laboratory reactor showed that significant integral and local parameters are similar to the reactor in semi-industrial scale, so that the reactor could be used to study a consecutive fast chlorination.
