Introduction To Microwave Chemical Reactor
Microwave chemical reactor is a special device for chemical reaction using microwave radiation. The reactor consists of a microwave source generating electromagnetic radiation, a reaction vessel containing a reaction mixture and a temperature control system. Microwave radiation is used because it efficiently and rapidly heats the reaction mixture, thereby speeding up the reaction and increasing the yield. The high energy of the microwaves causes polar and ionic molecules in the reaction mixture to vibrate, generating heat. This process is known as dielectric heating.
