Monitoring of Polymerization reactions
Application Type
  SPECIAL
Application ID
 
Description
  Timed sampling of polymer reactor vessel under high pressure and temperature.


Overview

This application uses a re-circulating pump to continuously flow fluid from a reactor vessel to the HPLC valve of the PAL. At specified timed intervals the HPLC valve toggles so that the loop contain the the reaction fluid is taken tmeporarily out of flow, and the contents of the loop is sampled using a syringe and placed in a storage vial for later analysis.

The whole system can be placed upon a moveable cart and positioned close to any reactor.
