Abstract
A method for carrying out a reaction between at least two reactants in a liquid reaction solution in at least one reaction zone so as to produce a reaction product includes carrying out a reaction continuously in a reaction flow for the at least one reaction zone in an extension of the at least one reaction zone as far as at least one reaction product outlet, introducing each of the at least two reactants over the extension of the at least one reaction zone via inlets in which the reaction flow is introduced, and removing the reaction product via the at least one reaction product outlet.
Claims20
A method for carrying out a reaction between at least two reactants to produce a reaction product, the reaction being carried out in a liquid reaction solution that forms a reaction flow in at least one reaction zone, the method comprising:
- a) introducing each of the at least two reactants into the liquid reaction solution that forms the reaction flow, wherein the at least two reactants are introduced into the liquid reaction solution via a series of at least two inlets leading into the reaction zone, wherein the at least two inlets are spaced apart in a direction of the reaction flow, and wherein at each of the at least two inlets, a single one of the at least two reactants is introduced into the liquid reaction solution such that the at least two reactants are introduced into the liquid reaction solution in an alternating manner in the direction of the reaction flow,
- b) continuously carrying out the reaction in the liquid reaction solution that forms the reaction flow in the at least one reaction zone so as to produce the reaction product;
- and
- c) removing the reaction product via at least one reaction product outlet;
- wherein the at least two reactants are gaseous, and
- wherein each of the at least two inlets is spanned by a sieve elements or a membrane.
A device for carrying out a continuous reaction between at least two reactants to produce a reaction product, the device comprising:
- at least one reaction zone configured to have introduced therein a liquid reaction solution that forms a reaction flow, the at least one reaction zone;
- a reaction product outlet configured to absorb the reaction flow;
- and
- a series of at least two inlets leading into the reaction zone, wherein the at least two inlets are spaced apart in a direction of the reaction flow, wherein each of the at least two inlets is configured to introduce a single one of the at least two reactants into the liquid reaction solution, wherein the series of the at least two inlets is configured to introduce the at least two reactants into the liquid reaction solution in an alternating manner in the direction of the reaction flow, and wherein each of the at least two inlets is spanned by a sieve elements or a membranes;
- wherein the at least two reactants are gaseous.
