Microstructured reactors such as the SuperFocus Interdigital micromixer offer an alternative to conventional large‐scale techniques. Flow patterns with reduced layer thicknesses lead to enlarged reactive surfaces that result in short mixing times, and thus high‐throughput reactions can be achieved. In their review on page 406 ff. K. Jähnisch, V. Hessel, et al. examine the potential of this new and powerful technology.
