Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of microfluidic technologies and their application areas. Microfluidic technologies are a promising field that allows achieving increased selectivity of reagents and ensuring a safe and well-intensified process. Reactors of this type are used in special chemistry and for engineering developments. The aim of the work is to develop a flow microfluidic reactor based on the kinetics of isophorone from acetone in an alkaline medium. The Comsol Multiphysics software is used as the environment for numerical modeling and calculation. This program has previously been used for modeling microchips and has specialized modules for such calculations. In this paper, a method is proposed for designing reaction-specific microfluidic chips using computational modeling programs based on kinetic and geometric parameters. As a result of the work, the number of micromixers required for complete mixing of reagents and the length of the channel that ensures the complete reaction are determined. The main geometric parameters of the calculated model are given. A comparison of the calculation results and the obtained experimental data is carried out.
