Such integrated micro chemical systems enable rapid, continuous discovery and development of new products with less environmental impact. This talk reviews advances in three areas of applications, (i) continuous flow synthesis in microreactors, (ii) microfluidic synthesis of nanoparticles and (iii) micro bioreactors. <p><p> <center> <small>Questions?
