Scale-Up Equipment

20 and 50 litre batch reactors, each equipped with:

• 5 L addition vessel
• 20 L distillate receiver
• 1 m² condenser
• variable speed agitator motor
• pitched bladed agitator for reaction scale-up
• interchangeable retreat curve agitator for crystallisation processes
• ATEX rated
  • temperature class T4
  • gas apparatus 2C (hydrogen compatible)

Operational temperature range: -20 to 160 ^oC

Integrated PAT:

• Temperature sensors (Tr, Tj, condenser jackets, distillate and BOV)
• Flow meters for heat transfer medium in vessel jackets and condensers
• Rotation sensors on agitator to monitor agitation rate
• LabVIEW software enables data mining for profiling batch parameters
• Compatible with standard probes for reaction and crystallisation monitoring

Dedicated process safety equipment available to support technology transfer into large-scale reactors.
