海底熱水噴出孔近傍の熱水環境を模擬したフローリアクター

抄録

  A flow reactor simulating a submarine hydrothermal system was constructed for examining the likelihood of oligopeptide synthesis from amino acids in chemical evolution. In the flow reactor, is a high-temperature and high-pressure fluids was injected into a low-temperature chamber maintained at almost the same high pressure as the fluid and it is a non-equilibrium open system reactor that is constantly supplies reactants and thermal energy. Here, I describe the configuration of the flow reactor, the experimental results using it, and the problem of the flow reactor as experimental tool for simulating hydrothermal environments.
