[0002] In the chemical industry, the n-butyraldehyde condensation reaction is an important chemical process used to produce a variety of chemical raw materials and intermediates. Traditional n-butyraldehyde condensation reactors often suffer from problems such as uneven mixing and low reaction efficiency. These problems often lead to poor reaction selectivity, numerous by-products, high energy consumption, and potential risks to the environment and operators.
[0003] To improve reaction efficiency and product yield, a novel reactor is needed that provides more efficient mixing and more precise chemical dosage control. Existing technologies lack sufficient control over the way reactants are added. For example, in the alkali condensation of n-butyraldehyde, excessive addition of alkali can easily lead to side reactions, thereby reducing the selectivity of the target product and affecting product quality. Furthermore, excessive liquid alkali catalyst may generate large amounts of high-COD, high-pH wastewater, causing environmental pollution.
[0004] Therefore, developing a novel n-butyraldehyde condensation reactor to solve these problems has become an important topic in the chemical industry. Utility Model Content

[0011] As an improvement, the number of alkali addition pipelines is three, and each alkali addition pipeline is equipped with an independently controlled flow valve.
