Legal Justification

Micromeritics is the only one known source that exists for supply of such an automated flow reactor with the unique capability for in situ catalyst characterisation. The following are the unique features of their offering: 1. A flexible and adaptable platform allowing many chemistries to be investigated, and the possibility of future upgrades 2. Safety: a. The unit can both send and accept signals to / from a laboratory central alarm system. b. The whole reactor / pipework system is installed within an insulated ‘hot box’ that may be temperature controlled up to 200°C, ensuring there are no cold spots where condensation may be an issue. Also, easy access to hot parts is avoided. 3. Micromeritics incorporates patented technologies in the design for a. A low volume gas / liquid separation technology that operates in near real time allowing the user to precisely follow product composition over the time scale of the reaction. b. A low volume gas / liquid / liquid separator with the ability to separate the aqueous and organic liquid phases e.g. for Fischer Tropsch reaction. c. A fast-acting micro regulating valve technology to deliver fast and stable pressure control. d. Ability to integrate other analytical technologies e.g. periodic in situ characterisation of the catalyst without interfering with the process at conditions close to real world applications. The In-Situ Catalyst Characterisation System (ICCS) is an accessory offered by Micromeritics that connects across the reactor and enables in-situ analysis using temperature programmed analysis, TPX (X = reduction, oxidation and desorption) and pulse chemisorption techniques.
