However much higher specific surface areas are possible while intense mixing and convection can be maintained.<\/p>\n Compared to classical monolith reactors, this structure allows for much better temperature control as well as mixing within the reactor. In laminar single phase operation, the induced mixing and convection eliminates diffusion limitations. The gas side transport of reactands to the active zone and reaction products away from it is increased by a factor 3 to 8. This will in some cases allow for a significant reduction of the reactor volume. The pressure drop of such reactors is low and can be brought to a similar level as for conventional monolith reactors.<\/p>\n Reactors using such novel structures can be made compact and the amount of expensive active material necessary can significantly be reduced.<\/p>\n Structures with specific surface areas of up to 10’000 m\u00b2\/m\u00b3 and void fractions of up to 90% can be realized<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section admin_label=“Sektion“ transparent_background=“off“ background_color=“#cbf4f4″ allow_player_pause=“off“ inner_shadow=“off“ parallax=“off“ parallax_method=“off“ custom_padding=“0px||0px|“ padding_mobile=“off“ make_fullwidth=“off“ use_custom_width=“off“ width_unit=“on“ custom_width_px=“1080px“ custom_width_percent=“80%“ make_equal=“off“ use_custom_gutter=“off“ fullwidth=“off“ specialty=“off“ disabled=“off“][et_pb_row admin_label=“Zeile“ make_fullwidth=“off“ use_custom_width=“off“ width_unit=“on“ use_custom_gutter=“off“ custom_padding=“10px||10px|“ padding_mobile=“off“ allow_player_pause=“off“ parallax=“off“ parallax_method=“off“ make_equal=“off“ column_padding_mobile=“on“ parallax_1=“off“ parallax_method_1=“off“ parallax_2=“off“ parallax_method_2=“off“ parallax_3=“off“ parallax_method_3=“on“ parallax_4=“off“ parallax_method_4=“on“ disabled=“off“][et_pb_column type=“1_2″][et_pb_image admin_label=“Bild“ src=“http:\/\/hirschberg-engineering.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Spiral_heat_exchanger-transp-e1477945554569.png“ title_text=“spiral heat exchanger“ show_in_lightbox=“off“ url_new_window=“off“ use_overlay=“off“ animation=“left“ sticky=“off“ align=“center“ force_fullwidth=“off“ always_center_on_mobile=“on“ use_border_color=“off“ border_color=“#ffffff“ border_style=“solid“]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=“Text“ background_layout=“light“ text_orientation=“left“ use_border_color=“off“ border_color=“#ffffff“ border_style=“solid“]<\/p>\n By derivative work: Anasofiapaixao Spiral_heat_exchanger.png: Michael Schmid (Spiral_heat_exchanger.png) [ (GFDL<\/a>), CC-BY-SA-3.0<\/a> or (CC BY 2.5<\/a>], via Wikimedia Commons<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=“1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=“Text“ background_layout=“light“ text_orientation=“left“ use_border_color=“off“ border_style=“solid“ disabled=“off“ border_color=“#ffffff“]<\/p>\n Compact high performance heat exchangers or coolers can be constructed using our TAM technology for special applications requiring extreme performance or chemically inert equipment.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section admin_label=“Sektion“ transparent_background=“off“ allow_player_pause=“off“ inner_shadow=“off“ parallax=“off“ parallax_method=“off“ custom_padding=“0px||0px|“ padding_mobile=“off“ make_fullwidth=“off“ use_custom_width=“off“ width_unit=“on“ custom_width_px=“1080px“ custom_width_percent=“80%“ make_equal=“off“ use_custom_gutter=“off“ fullwidth=“off“ specialty=“off“ disabled=“off“][et_pb_row admin_label=“Zeile“ make_fullwidth=“off“ use_custom_width=“off“ width_unit=“on“ use_custom_gutter=“off“ custom_padding=“10px||10px|“ padding_mobile=“off“ allow_player_pause=“off“ parallax=“off“ parallax_method=“off“ make_equal=“off“ column_padding_mobile=“on“ parallax_1=“off“ parallax_method_1=“off“ parallax_2=“off“ parallax_method_2=“off“ parallax_3=“off“ parallax_method_3=“on“ parallax_4=“off“ parallax_method_4=“on“ disabled=“off“][et_pb_column type=“1_2″][et_pb_image admin_label=“Bild“ src=“http:\/\/hirschberg-engineering.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/512px-Colonne_distillazione-e1477230739589.jpg“ show_in_lightbox=“off“ url_new_window=“off“ use_overlay=“off“ animation=“left“ sticky=“off“ align=“center“ force_fullwidth=“off“ always_center_on_mobile=“on“ use_border_color=“off“ border_color=“#ffffff“ border_style=“solid“ title_text=“Distillation column“]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=“Text“ background_layout=“light“ text_orientation=“left“ use_border_color=“off“ border_color=“#ffffff“ border_style=“solid“]<\/p>\n By Luigi Chiesa (Own work) [CC BY-SA 3.0 <\/a>], via Wikimedia Commons<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=“1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=“Text“ background_layout=“light“ text_orientation=“left“ use_border_color=“off“ border_style=“solid“ disabled=“off“ border_color=“#ffffff“]<\/p>\n Special micro structures for counter current mass transfer such as rectification or liquid-liquid extraction, fabricated with our TAM technology, are under development.
