RAPTOR® : Mini Continuous flow reactor for Fine Chemicals |
|
 |
RAPTOR®, developed by AET Group, is an industrial scale oriented continuous reactor for intensified chemical
processes. RAPTOR® is equipped with a high speed stirring system (up to 1500 rpm) combined with efficient thermal
transfer. Development of chemical processes using RAPTOR® allows to reduce the amount of solvent and accelerate
kinetics from hours in a batch process to a few minutes in a continuous process. |
