Micropore - Model LTS-1 -Monosized Droplet Generator System
The Micropore LTS-1 is designed for Laboratory use and comes in a standard configuration. It is the first step in scale-up from proof of principle and formulation development carried out on the Micropore LDC-1 towards a robust manufacturing process. It has a capacity of up to 10 kg/hr of dispersed phase. Monosized droplets – with resulting yield improvements and reduced waste. Low shear – with resulting preservation of sensitive materials. Ideal development tool for continuous manufacturing. Operational stability under different flow rates. Data shown from membrane area of 50cm2. Dispersed phase flow rate up to 10 kg/hr.
