Ontwikkeling en optimalisatie van fotochemische reactoren voor productiviteit en efficiƫntie KU Leuven
Continuous photochemical reactors with conventional homogeneous illumination suffer from a photon efficiency problem, which is inherent to their design: dark zones arise near the reagent-rich inlet whereas the reagent depleted outlet is over-illuminated. Any attempt to mitigate dark zones by decreasing the initial concentration of reagent at the inlet of the reactor will only increase photon losses further downstream. This study reports the ...
