Micro Chemical Engineering and Technology focuses on the development, basic principles, characteristics, and advantages of micro chemical technology. The book summarizes the basic laws of micro-scale single-phase flow, the micro-scale mixing process, and the enhancement of micro-scale mixing performance. It introduces gas-liquid, liquid-liquid, and gas-liquid-liquid micro-dispersion equipment and dispersion law, micro-scale heat/mass transfer performance, as well as homogeneous and heterogeneous micro-scale reactions, micro-scale absorption, extraction, and reaction processes enhancement technology.

For the application of micro chemical technology in the area of material interpretation, nano material preparation technology, fiber material preparation technology and special structure material preparation technology are introduced. Final content describes typical cases of industrial applications of gas-liquid absorption micro chemical equipment, liquid-liquid extraction micro chemical equipment, and chemical synthesis micro chemical equipment.
