Helical reactor

A helical reactor is a type of chemical reactor designed to enhance mixing and reactions by using a spiral or helical shape. This design promotes better contact between reactants, leading to more efficient reactions. The helical structure allows for a continuous flow of materials, maximizing space and improving heat and mass transfer. Commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals and petrochemicals, helical reactors can achieve high production rates while maintaining product quality. Their innovative design makes them effective for various chemical processes, particularly those requiring intense mixing or special reaction conditions.
