Abstract

A new method for the calorimetric characterization of high-energetic, fast reactions in flow mode has been developed. The use of an engineered flow reactor in combination with a process modelling software allowed the deconvolution of the reaction enthalpy from space-resolved temperature profiles. The new procedure was verified in a comparison with a conventional batch calorimeter and subsequently implemented for the thermal characterization of an organolithium flow process. The information collected for this reaction successfully supported a scale-up to the pilot plant. Overall, the new approach resulted to be superior when compared with established procedures, enabling the generation of precise calorimetric data in an accurate scale-down flow device.
