A Mixing-Based Design Methodology for Continuous Oscillatory Flow Reactors
Chemical Engineering Research and Design, 2002Oscillatory flow reactors (OFR) have been actively developed over the last fifteen years at a number of UK universities, including the department of Chemical Engineering, University of Cambridge. OFRs exploit the uniform and efficient vortex mixing that can be achieved when an oscillatory fluid motion interacts with orifice plate baffles in a tube. One

Analysis of axial dispersion in an oscillatory-flow continuous reactor
Chemical Engineering Journal, 2003Abstract Experimental results of axial mixing for single-phase flow in pulsed sieve plate column (PSPC) were presented and discussed. The study is aimed at the use of the PSPC as a new type of oscillatory-flow tubular reactor for emulsion polymerization processes.

Process intensification of biodiesel production using a continuous oscillatory flow reactor
Journal of Chemical Technology & Biotechnology, 2003AbstractOscillatory flow reactors (OFRs) are a novel type of continuous reactor, consisting of tubes containing equally spaced orifice plate baffles. An oscillatory motion is superimposed upon the net flow of the process fluid, creating flow patterns conducive to efficient heat and mass transfer, whilst maintaining plug flow.

Residence time distribution enhancement in reactors using oscillatory flow
Chemical Engineering Research & Design, 1996In this paper the published and ongoing research concerning oscillatory flow in baffled tubes is reviewed. A number of key features are identified. Using this technology it is possible to achieve a near plug flow behaviour and a long residence time with a relatively short tubular reactor.

Mechanism of the oscillatory decomposition of the dithionite ion in a flow reactor
Chemical Communications, 2002A simple mechanism consisting of three protonation equilibria and seven redox reactions between sulfur species can describe the large amplitude-sustained temporal pH-oscillations observed during acid-induced decomposition of the dithionite ion in a continuous-flow stirred tank reactor (CSTR) in the temperature range 25-60 degrees C.

Oscillatory Instability of a Plug Flow Reactor: A Heterogeneous Liquid-Liquid System
Russian Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2019A mathematical model of the dynamic behavior of a heterogeneous liquid-liquid reaction system in a plug flow reactor is formulated. Numerical investigation of the oscillatory instability of the reactor is carried out. The region of oscillatory regimes in a parametric space is examined for the Semenov parameter — the temperature at the entrance to the ...
