Manufacturers of pharmaceutical, fine and specialty chemicals face not only fierce competition, but also growing safety concerns, tough environmental legislation and rising energy costs.

And batch reactors, due to thermal inefficiency and other drawbacks, have struggled to provide a solution.

It’s time for the next step: the Alfa Laval ART® Plate Reactor. Built with Alfa Laval’s Reactor Technology, the Plate Reactor is a direct response to the needs of chemical manufacturers – many of whom are looking for alternatives.

By integrating a continuous flow with advanced plate heat exchanger technology, the Plate Reactor goes beyond batch reactor limitations to enable safe, environmental and cost-effective process intensification.
