從傳統的批次反應轉換到利用微通道反應器的連續生產，是實現工業4.0智慧製造重要的策略。驅動化學工藝的典範轉移最重要的動力則是追求本質上的安全性、降低生產成本、同時達到提升品質的永續發展。藉由瞭解微通道反應器的反應特性，尤其是光化學的突破性應用與發展，綜觀不同化工產業的應用案例以及未來趨勢，將微通道反應器導入化工產業，達到產業升級與世界潮流接軌。

It is definitely a paradigm shift from batch reactions to continuous manufacturing with microreactors in chemical industries which is also a strategic revolution in industry 4.0. The shift is driven by intrinsic safety advantages, cost reduction and continuous quality improvement. Through the introduction of micro-reactors, especially the breakthrough in photo-reactions, as well as the applications in different chemical and pharmaceutical industries, the transformation to continuous manufacturing by microreactors would be expected in the foreseeable future.
