Micro Process Engineering - Explained: Fundamentals, Devices, Applications

by Roland Dittmeyer, Peter Pfeifer, Jürgen Brandner

Micro Process Engineering - an emerging field with high potential for significant improvement of process efficiency (both energy and materials utilization) often subsumed as process intensification. The idea is to use microfabrication technologies to create continuous flow systems with excellent heat and mass transport performance that enable more efficient unit operations through more precise control of the process conditions as well as the integration of different functions into compact, safe, and scalable systems for flexible future chemical production technologies.
