We are happy to confirm that H.E.L has supplied us with two high pressure reactor systems with automation. These systems are used for the screening of catalysts and/or different reaction conditions in hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions. We have been using one device with eight autoclaves during the last 8 years or so, and we are very satisfied with it. The handling and programming is qui...

The H.E.L FlowCAT is a very robust, compact and flexible apparatus for high pressure heterogeneous catalytic processes. Its small footprint and versatility, along with the advantage of having reliable safety features, make the H.E.L FlowCAT an excellent piece of equipment to use. It has impressive potential for scaling up procedures.

Cranfield University is working with H.E.L group on the design and manufacture of custom automated synthesisers for production of artificial ”Plastic Antibodies”. By combining the expertise from Cranfield University on the synthetic process with automation and custom fabrication know-how of H.E.L, a range of synthesisers were produced, including a new near-production prototype. Our experience ...

This apparatus has many advantages. You have a good control of the temperature and pressure and you can follow the gas uptake on the monitor with good accuracy. The software is easy to use, with all commands for one run resumed in one program. The interface of the software is pleasant looking with a good view of all parameters. The reaction can be followed via the graphics, with the possibility of...

Currently Teva is using H.E.L CAT 7 hydrogenation system. It was effectively used for screening of hydrogenation catalysts and determination of optimal hydrogenation conditions. Our experience with CAT 7 system showed that it can significantly reduce the time needed for a selection of hydrogenation conditions, mostly by rapid identification of the most relevant screening hits for the further resea...
