Enzymes are nature’s own working bees, and the sole reason chemical reactions can be carried out in the neutral environment within all cells. Recently, chemists have tried to harness the great potential of enzymes in reactions, which are difficult to achieve by common...
Abstract Vapourtec has teamed up with UK based reactor manufacturer Stoli Chem to demonstrate a new range of continuous stirred tank reactors for continuous flow applications. In this application note we demonstrate how a biphasic reaction can be scaled up to...
Formulation chemistry stretches from flavours and fragrances, to food and beverages, to agrichemicals, to cosmetics. Although no chemical bonds are made or broken, formulation is a diverse field utilised across products we find in everyday life. One aspect of...
Continuous flow chemistry brings advantages such as decreased inventory, reduced chemical manufacturing costs, enhanced throughput, and improved safety. The precise process control enabled by continuous processing results in improved product quality. Rapid heat...
Many processes use gas-liquid phase boundaries in reactors, from lab to production scale. When assessing and designing a process, in particular processes when intrinsic chemistry is much quicker than mass transfer across the phase interface, the observed process rates...
Enzymes are nature’s bio-catalysts and are used in multiple industries as a low-cost route to many chemical intermediates. Why enzymatic chemistry is on the rise? Enzymes can activate complex chemical transformations without the need for precious metals and under mild...
