Features:
HEL FlowCAT Flow Chemistry catalytic Reactions Unit is a fixed-bed continuous flow reactor for catalytic and thermal conversions. The FlowCAT is a high pressure continuous flow reactor which can be applied for both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis and can be incorporated a combination of gas and liquid reactants under pressure or even down to atmospheric pressure.
Specifications:
Basic Reactor- Internal diameter of reactor: 12mm
- Length of reactor: 15cm
- Maximum pressure of reactor: 100bar
- Maximum temperature of reactor: 350oC
- Two gas feeds with two independent mass flow controller (MFC)
- Two liquid feeds with two independent high pressure HPLC totally automated pump with 150bar and flow up to 40ml/minute
Applications:
- Biofuel research
- Fisher-Tropsch synthesis
- Oxidation
- Hydrogenation
Software:
- WinISO proprietary HEL control software with real-time graphical and tabular display of data as well as recording and alarming
Notes to users:
First-time users must be trained by equipment-in-charge before they can use the instrument independently.
