The development of chemically compatible microsystems that can operate across expanded process conditions, such as high pressures (HP) and temperatures (HT), is great interest for many applications, including pressure chemistry hydrothermal supercritical fluid processes. We present a methodology the successful design use HP/HT microsystems. Key parameters fabrication microreactors modular fluidic packaging able to withstand severe temperature conditions (30 MPa, 400 °C) are described....
CdSe quantum dots (QDs) with narrow size distribution are synthesized continuously in a pressurized high-temperature microreactor using supercritical hexane as the main solvent. The as-prepared QDs exhibit photoluminescence emission (full-width at half-maximum small 25 nm, corresponding to σ = 4%), showing advantages of supercritical-fluid synthesis compared conventional high-boiling-point solvents.
This review outlines the combination of infrared spectroscopy and continuous microfluidic processes.
Supercritical fluids offer fast and facile routes toward well-crystallized tailor-made cerium oxide nanoparticles. However, the use of surfactants to control morphology surface properties remains essential. Therefore, although water, near-critical (nc) or supercritical (sc), is a solvent choice, poor water solubility some could require other systems such as alcohols, which themselves behave modifiers. In here, influence seven different MeOH, EtOH, PrOH, iPrOH, ButOH, PentOH, HexOH, in...
This paper rationalizes the green and scalable synthesis of graphenic materials different aspect ratios using anthracite coal as a single source material under supercritical environments. Single layer, monodisperse graphene oxide quantum dots (GQDs) are obtained at high yield (55 wt %) from in water. The GQDs ∼3 nm lateral size display fluorescence 28%. They show cell viability readily used for imaging cancer cells. In an analogous experiment, ratio with ribbon-like morphology (GRs)...
This mini-review focuses on two different miniaturizing approaches: the first one describes generation and use of droplets flowing within a millifluidic tool as individual batch microreactors.

In this work, we present a novel microfluidic-based approach for investigating the thermodynamics of multicomponent systems at high pressures and temperatures, such as determining miscibility diagrams critical coordinates complex mixtures. The developed method is primarily based on (i) bubble dew point detection through optical characterization (ii) use so-called dynamic stop-flow measurement mode fast screening diagram parameters, mainly P, T composition. Our strategy was validated studies...

Supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) with hydrothermal flames is well established for the treatment of aqueous organic waste as it not only overcomes limitations simple SCWO, such precipitation salts, but also exhibits many advantages over other processes.

Consequently, behavior is switched from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. Analysis reveals that layer...
