- Filtration Pilot Units: Pilot-scale separation and filtration testing.
- Heating & Cooling Units: For thermal process control during pilot studies.
Units can be customized to meet the precise requirements of the process being tested.
Process
The Atommek Universal Pilot Unit process is designed for flexibility and adaptability:
- Feed Material Loading: Raw materials or formulations are introduced into the pilot system.
- Process Operation: The unit performs the desired process (reaction, evaporation, blending, etc.) under controlled conditions.
- Monitoring & Control: Automated sensors and PLC systems track temperature, pressure, flow rate, and other critical parameters.
- Sample Collection: Pilot-scale samples are collected for analysis, optimization, and validation.
- Process Adjustment: Parameters can be adjusted in real-time to optimize outcomes.
- Data Recording: Process data is recorded for scale-up and industrial application.
Features & Advantages
- Modular Design: Easily configurable for multiple process types.
- Flexible Operation: Supports a wide range of pilot-scale experiments.
- Process Monitoring: PLC control and sensor integration for precise operation.
- Data-Driven Optimization: Pilot data supports process scale-up and validation.
- High Safety Standards: Designed with safety features for pilot operation.
