Abstract:
1. The apparatus for the production of materials requiring a plurality of chemical reaction steps: wherein the process for which the process apparatus is employed has been separated into a plurality of separate successive process steps, each process step involving the reaction together of at least two principal step reaction components, with or without at least one catalyst component; wherein each process step is carried out in a separate, respective process step apparatus comprising: motor-operated, micro-agitation means; means for feeding the respective principal step reaction components to the motor-operated micro-agitation means wherein they are reacted together while subjected to motion-augmented, sub-Kolmogoroff, micro-agitation to facilitate the reaction between them, the operation of the motor-operated micro-agitation means resulting in a mixture of process step output materials; and means for discharging such a mixture therefrom; and wherein each process step apparatus also comprises: process step separator means for separating from the mixture of process step output materials received from the micro-agitation means a principal step reaction component for supply to a subsequent process step apparatus; means for feeding a mixture discharged from the micro-agitation means to the process step separator means; and means for discharging at least the separated principal step reaction component from the process step separator means for supply to the subsequent process step apparatus.
