There are also significant advantages relative to using stir tank reators in terms of size operation time, and yield; a 16000L stir tank reactor at James Robinson was recently replaced by a 270L COBR.

This included a first stage hydrolysis phase that has ten times the efficiency of conventional continuous stirred tank reactors and allows the system to handle three times the amount of ammonia that would normally kill most digester bacteria.

With respect to batch and Continuously stirred-tank reactors ( CSTRs ) however have a residence time distribution and cannot mirror batch or plug flow reactors, which can cause a difference in the dispersity of final polymer.

"Biohydrometallurgy " is an emerging trend in biomining in which commercial mining plants operate continuously stirred tank reactor ( STR ) and the airlift reactor ( ALR ) or pneumatic reactor ( PR ) of the Pachuca type to extract the low concentration mineral resources efficiently.

In numeric solutions, e . g . when using computers, the ideal tube is often translated to a series of tank reactors, as it can be shown that a PFR is equivalent to an infinite number of stirred tanks in series, but the latter is often easier to analyze, especially at steady state.

From a technological point of view, MRT, a . k . a . continuous flow reactors, represents the first breakthrough development in reactor design since the introduction of the stirred-tank reactor, which was used by Perkin & Sons, when they set up a factory on the banks of what was then the Grand Junction Canal in London in 1857 to produce mauve�ne, the first-ever synthetic purple dye.
