Abstract: To form many bulk chemicals, gaseous substances must be mixed with a continuous liquid phase and made to react. This often results in the formation of undesirable by-products. How the formation of a by-product of a fast competing subsequent reaction can be influenced by the time scales of the mixing is investigated. A Taylor bubble experiment is used in which the time scales of mixing can be varied systematically and reproducibly. It is shown that the mixing in the wake of a bubble is of decisive importance with regard to the formation of by-products.
