06007 Mixing in Microdevices and Microreactors I
OverviewThis session is focused on fundamental work as well as recent developments in microdevices and microreaction engineering systems. Topics of interest will include, but are not limited to, fluid dynamic modeling of microdevices, microreactors for homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, microreactor design and operation, transport phenomena in microreactors, and novel uses of microreactors.
