  • Electrochemical reaction method and microchannel electrochemical reactor and its manufacturing method
    Patent number: 7662270
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrochemical method and reactor in which at least one electrochemical reaction compartment (5, 6) comprises a plurality of microchannels whose grooves have a cross section of at least partially curved contour with a radius of curvature greater than 30 ?m and an area of between 2500 ?m2 and 20000 ?m2. Application to the synthesis of diastereoisomers by continuous regeneration of NADH or NADPH.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 18, 2005
    Date of Patent: February 16, 2010
    Assignees: Universite Paul Sabatier Toulouse III, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (C.N.R.S.)
    Inventors: Theodore Tzedakis, Cheikhou Kane, Anne Launay
  • Microfluid device and synthetic methods
    Patent number: 7273541
    Abstract: A method of electrolytic synthesis comprises applying a potential between a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode is in contact with a first fluid stream in a channel, the second electrode is in contact with a second fluid stream in the channel, and the first steam and the second stream are in parallel laminar flow in the channel.
