Continuous reactor

Abstract

Provided is a continuous reactor capable of performing precise chemical reactions with a simple configuration. A continuous reactor includes an upstream-side unit (10a), a downstream-side unit (10b) connected to the upstream-side unit, and a rotation driving unit configured to rotate the upstream-side unit and the downstream-side unit about a common rotary shaft, in which a target substance to be subjected to a reaction supplied to the upstream-side unit is stirred in the upstream-side unit and subsequently transferred to the downstream-side unit, and the rotation driving unit causes the upstream-side unit to perform oscillating rotation about the rotary shaft in such a way that the target substance is stirred in the upstream-side unit, and causes the upstream-side unit to perform circumferential rotation about the rotary shaft in such a way that the target substance is transferred from the upstream-side unit to the downstream-side unit.
