A microwave reactor includes a chamber, at least one microwave source, a sprayer and a vapor extractor. The chamber includes a containing space and a reacting space. The containing space is communicated with the reacting space and provided for containing a reactant. The microwave source is connected to one side wall of the reacting space of the chamber. The sprayer is communicated with the containing space of the chamber for turning the reactant into a mist and spraying the mist in the reacting space of the chamber. The vapor extractor is connected to the reacting space. When the water contained in the mist is gasified to produces a water vapor, the water vapor can be exhausted from the chamber by the vapor extractor.

A microwave heating system comprises a bowl, dome and rotor device. The dome is fit to the bowl. The bowl and dome form a volume. The bowl is connected to a microwave source such that a microwave field is supplied to the volume. The microwave field is attenuated in a region between the rotor device and the dome compared to a region between the bowl and the rotor device. The rotor device is rotatably supported by the bowl and supports a reaction vessel. The rotor device includes a base plate with a through-hole and a tubular member that receives the reaction vessel. The base plate and tubular member are metal. The rotor device is coupled to the base plate so that a longitudinal axis of the tubular member passes through the through-hole.

A microwave device includes a microwave generator generating a microwave and outputting the microwave, a waveguide guiding the microwave output from the microwave generator, a cavity resonator, and a flow tube. In some embodiments, the cavity resonator has an irradiation chamber as a quadrangular prism cavity into which the microwave guided by the waveguide is introduced, resonates the microwave in the irradiation chamber, and generates an electric field in TM110 mode along a direction of a center axis through centers of top and bottom faces of the irradiation chamber. The flow tube is installed in the irradiation chamber and formed in a helical fashion by winding and extending around the center axis, and causes a liquid to be treated to flow in a direction crossing the electric field generated in the irradiation chamber. The center axis is a location where the electric field is the strongest in the irradiation chamber.
