Abstract

The present invention is directed to a special device for fast mixing and precipitation reactions of chemical substances. In particular, the present invention presents a reactor which allows an extremely fast mixing of at least two liquid streams containing highly concentrated dissolved materials from which solid metal compound particles are formed when at least two reactant streams meet, to which optionally a further stream, advantageously containing a dispersion or suspension, may be added.
