Reactant concentrations can be easily monitored and adjusted by simply controlling the input/output flow rates into/out of the reactor, which gives chemists greater accuracy when carrying out complex reactions. The stirring of solutions within the reactor also ensures that reactants remain evenly mixed, resulting in consistent products across different batches. Furthermore, since reactions occur in real time with CSTRs, their residence times are much shorter compared to batch processing methods...
