Sustainability is vital in solving global societal problems. Still, it requires a holistic view by considering renewable energy and carbon sources, recycling waste streams, environmentally friendly resource extraction and handling, and green manufacturing. Flow chemistry at the microscale can enable continuous sustainable manufacturing by opening up new operating windows, precise residence time control, enhanced mixing and transport, improved yield and productivity, and inherent safety. Furthermore, integrating microfluidic systems with alternative energy sources, such as microwaves and plasmas, offers tremendous promise for electrifying and intensifying modular and distributed chemical processing. This review provides an overview of microflow chemistry, electrification, their integration toward sustainable manufacturing, and their application to biomass upgrade (a select number of other processes are also touched upon). Finally, we identify critical areas for future research, such as matching technology to the scale of the application, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle assessment.
可持续性对于解决全球社会问题至关重要。然而，它需要一个整体的视角，要考虑可再生能源和碳源、废物流回收利用、环境友好型资源开采与处理以及绿色制造。微观尺度的流动化学可以通过开辟新的操作窗口、精确控制停留时间、增强混合与传输、提高产率和生产率以及具备固有安全性来实现连续的可持续制造。此外，将微流控系统与微波和等离子体等替代能源相结合，为模块化和分布式化学加工的电气化和强化提供了巨大的前景。本综述概述了微流化学、电气化、它们朝着可持续制造的整合以及它们在生物质升级中的应用（也涉及了一些其他特定过程）。最后，我们确定了未来研究的关键领域，例如使技术与应用规模相匹配、技术经济分析以及生命周期评估。
