Abstract
The installation of a StarLam 3000 microreactor in an existing production plant is reported. The aim was to double the capacity of a running two step batch process. This was achieved by installing the microreactor for the first reaction step. A higher reaction rate made it possible to reach overall throughputs of 3.6 tons per hour. Additionally energy savings were achieved. The microreactor is running in production for more than a year now. © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
