Photochemical Reactor
The Intelligent Photochemical Reactor is a benchtop, light-driven synthesis platform that turns “precise light + controlled mixing + stable temperature” into one automated workflow. A ring-array multi-wavelength LED source surrounds the reaction chamber, a magnetic stirrer keeps the suspension homogeneous, and a PID temperature loop holds the reaction system stable. With a touchscreen HMI, light–stir–temperature co-control, and active air cooling, it is designed for photocatalysis, photoredox synthesis, and materials/energy research where repeatability matters more than brute-force lamp power.

Core Capabilities
- Precise Light Control: multi-wavelength LED source, continuously adjustable intensity, uniform ring illumination around the reactor
- Light–Stir Co-Control: LED output and magnetic-stirring speed are intelligently linked to improve reaction efficiency and run-to-run consistency
- PID Temperature Feedback: built-in temperature sensor with closed-loop control; heating film + active cooling keep the bath/reactor stable
- Touchscreen Intelligence: independent or programmed control of light, stirring, and temperature; recipe storage and one-click run
- Active Air Cooling: surround heat-conductive fins + cooling fans + bottom exhaust fan suppress temperature rise during high-power, long-duration runs
- Safe Operation: over-temperature protection, over-current protection, program lock, UV/visible light shielding for operator safety
- Magnetic Stirring: precisely controlled rotation of the stir bar for uniform catalyst/suspension mixing
- Customizable Platform: reactor length, volume, and functional modules can be configured per application

Technical Highlights
- Smart, not just illuminated: light, stirring, and temperature are co-regulated, not three separate knobs
- Uniform ring light: annular LED array reduces shadowing and hot spots vs. side-only lamps
- Repeatability first: PID temperature feedback + programmable recipes reduce human error and improve experiment reproducibility
- Long-run stable: active air-cooling architecture supports high-power LED operation over extended periods
- Lab-friendly: touchscreen recipes, one-click run, low learning curve for new users
Typical Applications
- Photocatalysis: dye degradation, pollutant photodegradation, TiO₂ / 2D catalyst evaluation
- Photoredox Synthesis: fine-chemical and pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis under visible/UV light
- Energy Materials: photocatalytic water splitting, H₂/O₂ evolution, CO₂ reduction screening
- 2D / Van-der-Waals Materials: photo-response and interface studies under controlled illumination
- Nanomaterials: powder suspension photocatalysis, quantum dots, perovskite photo-stability
- Parallel Condition Screening: wavelength / intensity / temperature / stirring sweeps with reproducible conditions
