First-principles 3D reactor design: Large Eddy Simulation and Direct Numerical Simulation with detailed chemistry Ghent University
The rising computational power makes that new innovations are possible of which 5
years ago one could not even dream. This is in particular important for chemical
reactor and reaction engineering where Process Intensification drives researchers to
think outside the box. In the academic as well as the industrial world, innovations are
more and more based on 3D reactor simulations incorporating chemical reactions. ...

Excited molecules: development of photo- and redox-pathways as tools for green chemistry and bio-resource valorization Ghent University
The research program proposed herein will focus on the study of alternative energy input processes for chemical synthesis, including direct light-induced chemical derivatization, the closely related photo-redox processes and electrochemistry. Leveraged by micro-reactor technology, these alternate mechanistic pathways are evolving into valuable and green chemistry tools. The economic viability of both photo- and electro-chemically induced ...

Analysis of Laminar Flow Electrochemical reactors: Self-supported Synthesis and the Effects of Ultrasound KU Leuven
The electrochemical synthesis of organic molecules provides a unique control over the reaction conditions: The electrical current flowing through the electrodes determines the conversion and the applied potential difference between the electrodes determines the selectivity. Electrolysis is therefore reported as an attractive method for the synthesis of organic molecules that have applications in the fine chemical, specialty chemical, and ...
