Realiza actividades de investigación y de transferencia de tecnología a las empresas del sector farmacéutico y de la química fina. Cuenta con un equipo de profesores e investigadores con sólida trayectoria en el entorno industrial.

Equipment and technologies

Application of new manufacturing technologies in fine chemistry, transforming and optimising batch or discontinuous production systems into continuous production systems with more efficient, stable, safer, faster and cleaner reactions.

  • Two Syrris modular reactors: one for laboratory scale and one for process scale-up (kilolab). They operate from microlitre/minute to half a litre/minute. Reaction monitoring and control is performed by process analysis techniques (PAT).
  • Fine chemical reaction calorimeter for processes operating with a reaction volume between 1 and 2L, at temperatures between -20°C and 200°C, and pressure between 1 and 60 bar.

Titan modular continuous flow chemistry reactor (SYRRIS): TITAN modular continuous flow chemistry equipment for process scale-up and batch production up to 1 kg.
