Adsorption Testing Services
Revolutionary adsorbent screening services with multi-column solutions based on years of experience in high-throughput testing. The contract research and validation are done by our experienced scientific team for the highest data quality.
Accelerate your adsorbent discovery
High-throughput dynamic flowthrough testing is a powerful tool for developing, evaluating or screening adsorbents to capture adsorbates from various sources. The evaluation and screening may involve selectivity and capacity studies, determining breakthrough curves and the construction of multicomponent adsorption isotherms. The breakthrough curves contain kinetic information determined under ideal hydrodynamic conditions.
Due to the small column size, relevant desorption and regeneration test data can be obtained quickly and with only small amounts of sample. This is especially relevant when testing newly developed adsorbents, often only available in small quantities, or when screening many different conditions.
Fast and accurate adsorbent high-throughput testing services
The systems are running fully automated using the flexible Flowrence software, allowing cyclic operation and fast data acquisition.
Avantium’s Flowrence Technology® enables the capability of running up to 64 experiments simultaneously using its patented micro fluid chip to achieve a high accuracy fluid distribution to the flow through reactor.
The microfluidic distribution chip technology offers the highest accuracy in flow distribution with a standard deviation of 0.5% or better between columns. The use of temperature controlled column cabinets assure accurate temperature control during the experiments.
Multiple feeds can be introduced and mixed in situ or by using a premixed fluid. The fluid flow delivery is continuous and free of pulses with minimum dead volumes.
