Design and synthesis of ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents, used transversally in all working lines. Analytical quality control techniques of the solvents. Extractor with supercritical CO2.

Handmade

 

Main features: mixing two solid components into one liquid phase on determinate circumstances.

 

Applications:

  • Use as solvent in polymer chemical recycling processes (PET, PU).
  • Use as porus creator in the polymeric membrane synthesis.
  • Use as additive in supported liquid membrane preparation.

Handmade

 

Main features: Protic ionic liqids synthesis (PILs) can be done using a thermostatic bath. It also has a reactives controlled addition system and mechanical stirring.

 

Applications: They can be used as catalysers in polymeric chemical recycling processes (PET) and interest product retrieval such as cotton.

Commercial ILs come from Iolitec (Germany)

 

Main features: Synthesis products of eutetic nature. Generally and with high gas solubility.

 

Applications:

  • High efficiency in decarbonisation and CO2 secuestration processes.
  • Used as catalysers in polymeric chemical recycling processes (PA).

Main features: Vacuum discontinuous distillation, heated and with regulated temperatur using silicone oil bath.

 

Applications:

  • DESs preparations, and possibility of ILs and DESs purification.
  • Concentrantion of lignocellulosic fractions.

Reactor Parr 5500 with controller Parr 4848 (Parr, USA)

 

Main features: Reactor able to obtain CO2 in supercritical conditions (T >31ºC and P >74 bar).

 

Applications:

  • Enzime encapsulation in pills for waste water treatment.
  • Aimed for textile products.
  • Controlled medicine release.
