A Readily-Reconfigurable Continuous-Stirred Tank Photochemical Reactor Platform
Keyword(s):
A new modular photochemical continuous-stirred tank reactor design is described, based upon the development of light-source units that can be fitted to the previously described fReactor CSTR platform. In contrast to many tubular or plate-based designs, these units are especially well-suited to handling multiphasic mixtures, exemplified here in solid-liquid and gas-liquid photochemical reactions. The use of slurries as input feeds allows for intensification of a photochemical bromination, while the modular nature of the system facilitates simple integration of downstream reaction steps, exemplified here in a continuous synthesis of an intermediate for the drug valsartan.
