SpinPro R10 is our small-scale ceramic (SiC) flow reactor, suited for chemical process development and production. SpinPro R10 enables processes to be developed and directly scaled to tonne-scale production using SpinPro R300. Made from silicon carbide, SpinPro offers the superior chemical resistance and heat transfer needed for challenging flow chemistry applications.
- Excellent mass transfer
- Excellent heat transfer
- Chemical-resistant
- Closed system, no shaft and seals
- Economical and safe operation due to low reactor volume
- Scalability to SpinPro R300 for tonne-scale production
- Modular set-up enabling customised configurations
The SpinPro technology is well suited for multiphase chemistry. Liquid/gas, liquid/liquid or combinations. Furthermore, it can handle precipitation reactions. SpinPro technology is also excellent for controlled emulsification.
Application examples:
- Organometallic Chemistry
- Nitration
- Halogenation
- Micro-encapsulation
- Emulsion polymerisation
SpinPro technology enables more efficient and safer process conditions while investments (CAPEX) can be reduced significantly. Often quality is improved, the yield increased with less by-product formation and the final product properties improved. Typically CAPEX reductions of 20-70% can be realised depending on the process. The main drivers are the lower costs of safety measurements and work-up installations.
In most applications we see a significant decrease in operational costs (OPEX) due to the higher efficiencies and lower work-up of the product, even to the extent that processes can be performed undiluted, saving tremendously on distillation, for example.
Further advantages are easy shutdown, cleaning and start-up. A major benefit is the flexibility to make different products in the same installation due to fast turnaround. The R10 can be stopped, cleaned and restarted within a few hours.
