1. A photoreactor, comprising:
a reactor flow system including a reactor inlet port and a reactor outlet port coupled to a first housing, and a length of reactor tubing fluidically coupled to the reactor inlet port and the reactor outlet port and disposed inside the first housing;
a lighting system configured to emit light in a defined wavelength range toward the length of reactor tubing; and
a temperature control system including an inlet port and an outlet port coupled to a second housing, and a length of temperature control tubing fluidically coupled to the inlet port and the outlet port, the temperature control system configured to circulate a fluid to cool the lighting system, the second housing separated from the first housing by a separation distance of at least about 5 mm.
