Oscillatory Flow Reactor Design for Biological Process

Oscillatory flow reactor (OFR) is a novel type of tubular reactor consisting of equally spaced orifice baffles (sometimes called doughnut baffles) fitted inside the column of the reactor. OFR can be used for biological and chemical processes such as crystallisation of paracetamol, biofuel production...
