Sucrose solution as a new viscous test fluid with tunable viscosities up to 2 Pas for micromixing characterization by the Villermaux–Dushman reaction

Abstract For the first time, micromixing characterization for Villermaux–Dushman reaction could be performed with a non-reactive viscous medium at viscosities up to 2 Pas. As medium, sucrose solution was used benefit of being Newtonian fluid tuneable viscosity. Due higher in comparison established media investigations, new protocol experimental implementation developed. Micromixing experiments were conducted and applicability solutions proven stirred tank reactor. Major challenges characterizing efficiency high consolidated.
