The present disclosure relates in a broad form to a pseudo-isothermal flow reactor (100) for an exothermal reaction comprising at least two reaction enclosures (108, 114) and a cooling medium enclosure (102) configured to hold a cooling medium under pressure at the boiling point of said cooling medium, said reaction enclosures (108, 114) having an outer surface configured to be in thermal contact with the cooling medium, and each of said reaction enclosures (108, 114) having an inlet and an outlet with the associated benefit of enabling a two-stage pseudo-isothermal operation while only requiring a single cooling medium enclosure (102) and only single cooling medium circuit. |
