Reactor

An apparatus for producing a liquid colloid, the apparatus comprising:

• a first plate mounted for rotation about a rotation axis, the first plate having a top and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface comprises a reaction surface;
• first and second inlet lines extending through the first plate and arranged to introduce respective first and second liquid feedstock materials to the reaction surface;
• a motor adapted to rotate the first plate around the rotation axis at a velocity that is sufficient to retain the first and second liquid feedstock on the reaction surface upon injection;
• and
• a collection unit arranged to collect a reaction product formed from reaction of the liquid feedstock materials as a liquid colloid ejected from an outer edge of the plate.

A method of forming a liquid colloid, the method comprising:

• rotating a first plate about a rotation axis;
• providing first and second liquid feedstock materials to a reaction surface of the first plate via first and second inlet lines;
• transforming the feedstock materials to a reaction product over the reaction surface of the first plate;
• and
• collecting the reaction product with a collection unit as a liquid colloid ejected from an outer edge of the first plate.
