Simulation of mixing of alkaline hydrogen peroxide under heterogeneous conditions
Alkaline hydrogen peroxide (AHP) serves as an important oxidant in liquid-liquid heterogeneous organic peroxidation reactions. During the continuous-flow formulation of AHP
the mixing rate and mixing uniformity of H

and NaOH in the aqueous phase directly affects both safety and reaction efficiency. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was used to investigate the continuous preparation of AHP inside a cross-shaped mixer. The effects of flow regime
operating conditions
and channel scale-up o
n mixing performance were examined. According to the simulation results
jet flow yields the best mixing effect
followed by annular flow and slug flow. An increase in total flow velocity or aqueous phase ratio
or a decrease in channel diameter
can notably enhance mixing
whereas the initial concentration shows a relatively small influence. A predictive correlation for mixing time was established
with prediction errors within ±25%. Furthermore
the incorporation of a Kenics static mixer (SK) reduces the mixing time to less than 1 s.
