Abstract

596363 A thin film reactor (10) for continuous processing of fluid is disclosed. The reactor includes an outer vessel (11) to accommodate fluids to be processed, an inner vessel (15) situated within the outer vessel to serve as a heat exchange surface, and an annular space (16) defined between the outer and inner vessels and along which processing of the fluids can be implemented. A heat exchange fluid flows through the inner vessel. The fluid to be processed in the annular space travels in a substantially thin film. A temperature differential is maintained in the annular space between the outer and inner vessels. The fluid being processed within the annular space may be imparted with increased energy as a result of heat exchange. Thus, enabling increased thermal transfer, mass transfer, or mixing rates or a combination thereof. The continuous thin film reactor can be used to perform, for example, distillation and evaporation, fluid-fluid or solid-fluidfluid reactions, organic reactions, cooling, and desalination.
