Modularisation of Microstructured Separation Devices as a Method of Scale-up using the Example of Distillation
Microstructured devices are discussed as an approach for process intensification in the area of chemical reactors. One barrier for the implementation of these devices in industrial or lab scale is the lack of components in the area of downstream processes. This article demonstrates the potential of micro structured distillation devices based on theoretical studies.
