See our latest article in Speciality Chemicals Magazine, in which Joe and Sam go into the benefits of flow chemistry from the perspective of a green chemist.
Many of the 12 principles apply to flow chemistry and our Scalable Agitated Baffle Reactor (SABRe)

Scaling up continuous flow chemistry
Key considerations, problems and solutions scaling up a continuous process from lab to production.

Plug flow (tubular) reactor
Tubular reactors (incorrectly, “plug flow”) – the simplest continuous reactors. See Daniel Lambden’s overview of the tubular reactors.
SABRe is available in Hastelloy
Stainless steel 316L is good in corrosive environments but halogens corrode it quickly. Nickel-based Hastelloy C 276 is much more stable.
Consistent oil-in-water emulsions in continuous flow
Using a continuous multi-CSTR system allowed us to make droplets 2.5 times more uniform compared to a batch reactor
How to calculate heat transfer in continuous flow applications
Continuous flow (such as micro-reactors) are superior for exothermic reactions. How do you compute the thermal performance of a reactor?
