Kirschneck et al.; Chem.Eng.Technol. 2007, 30(3), 305-308
• starting point: one single process step
• integration of microreactors or micro-structured components
• interventions as small as possible
case study example:
• capacity: 3 tons/hour
• effect• double plant capacity
• energy savings
• investment costs: 1/10 compared to conventional

• typical for one process step
• typical solution for inefficient or difficult process steps
• implements individual reaction steps in a continuous process
• no modification of remaining process steps
• dedicated or limited multipurpose
• on-module flexibility
• savings:
• higher yields
• less energy consumption
• less raw material input

case study example:
• mixing-sensitive reaction
• barely feasible in batch mode
• microreactor plant results: 30 % higher yield compared to batch
• total throughput is 200 l/hour
• the pilot/production plant has been started up successfully in May 2010
• yield difference (lab-manufactur-ing): 0.1%

modular multipurpose-concept
• combines advantage of batch technology (flexibility ) with advantage of continuous processing (process per-formance )
• interchangeable modules temporarily assembled and variably combined
• functional units, which can be combined individually according to the process
• fast adaption to new processes and easy plant extension
• optimization of plant utilization
• totally new plant concept in chemical industry

Dipl.-Ing. Walter Linhart, perfectionist“We set up modular manufacturing systems that will allow our customers to transfer their competences into productivity in the highest degree.
Dr. Günter Tekautz, puzzle freakYield and process stability increases to the same extent as the number of possible synthesis routes can be expanded by flow and other intensification technologies.
The research leading to these results has received funding
from the European Community's Seventh Framework Pro gramme
[FP7/2007-2013] under grant agreement no. CP-IP 228 853-2
