Title:
MIXING REACTOR AND RELATED PROCESS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/111703
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A mixing reactor (10) for precipitating nanoparticles by mixing a precursor fluid with a second fluid at a higher temperature than the precursor fluid. The reactor comprises: a first fluid conduit (1) with an inlet region (3) configured to receive a flow of the precursor fluid, and an outlet region (4) configured to output a mixed flow; and a second fluid conduit (2) configured to receive a flow of the second fluid. The second fluid conduit (2) extends into the first fluid conduit (1) in a direction substantially perpendicular to the flow within the first fluid conduit, and has an opening (5) for introducing the second fluid into the first fluid conduit. Related processes for producing nanoparticles are disclosed.
