Optimal Feed Location In A Spinning Disc Reactor For The Production Of Tio2 Nanoparticles

In this work different feeding location points over a rotating spinning disc reactors are compared. The examined system was the production of titanium dioxide nanoparticles by chemical reaction-precipitation. The reaction is the hydrolysis of tetraisopropoxide by 0.1 M nitric acid aqueous Solution at ambient temperature. The goal was to identify the feeding system which enables to produce titania nanoparticles by minimizing the reactor scaling. It was found that a multiple reagent injector system allows the production of titania nanoparticles by minimization of scaling.
