Microwave Chemistry

Most chemists are familiar with the benefits of working with microwave reactors in the laboratory. The technology enables them to test different chemical reactions and find the perfect compound much faster than using conventional heating methods.

• Faster - faster reactions, more throughput

• Cleaner - no hot oil, no fouling of hot surfaces

• Greener - higher yields, less by-products, less catalyst, less waste

• Safer - lower inventories, easy temperature control

C-Tech Innovation supplies continuous flow microwave reactors capable of processing from 0.3 l/hour up to 100 l/hour, operating at up to 20 Bar and 200 °C. For more information click here to download our Microwave Chemical Reactors Datasheet.

We can supply complete process systems, reactors for integration into existing systems and mobile skid mounted units. We would be happy to talk to you about a bespoke solution for your process.

For pharmaceutical applications we are working with our partner Cambrex to develop microwave assisted organic sythesis (MAOS) technology – click here for details
