This technique is often disregarded due to the limitation of light absorption as described in the Bouguer–Lambert–Beer law. To overcome this limitation, flow chemistry offers a clear advantage as it ensures uniform irradiation of reaction mixtures throughout the reactor coil. This approach has many advantages over conventional batch photochemistry where maintaining uniform photochemical energy across a batch vessel is simply not possible, particularly at larger scale. 

Designed to provide unrivalled scalability, the PhotoSyn™ high-power LED photoreactor light module for flow chemistry is proven to deliver the true potential of photochemistry across an extensive range of reaction chemistries.
