New modular parallel fixed bed reactor for refining, petrochemical and chemical applications to accelerate experiment throughput.

The Symyx Parallel Fixed Bed Reactor can be used in a variety of traditional applications within petrochemicals and refining, in addition to emerging areas such as biofuels and other biorenewable ...

Specialist flow chemistry firm Vapourtec has recently launched their high temperature packed bed reactor which will open up 'exciting opportunities' for a host of new types of reaction.

Fixed bed reactors are a practical tool for working with immobilized heterogeneous reagents and catalysts in continuous flow because of their simplicity. However, this technology has certain limits.

Pebble bed reactors are helium-cooled, graphite-moderated reactors in which the fuel is in the form of tennis ball-sized spherical “pebbles” encased in a graphite moderator. New fuel pebbles are ...

Specialist flow chemistry firm Vapourtec has recently launched their high temperature packed bed reactor which will open up ‘exciting opportunities’ for a host of new types of reaction.

Users of the reactor will be able to pack it with appropriate catalysts, scavenger resins or stoichiometric reagents. Dr Manuel Nuño of Vapourtec explained “This pioneering high temperature packed bed ...
