Chemical reaction technologies

GINYS-ICIQ-008
The Chemical Reaction Technologies Unit makes available to the user a wide range of techniques to carry out chemical reactions under different conditions (high pressure, microwaves, flow reactions, photochemistry), enables the scaling up of reactions, and offers non-intrusive techniques for monitoring reactions in situ. At the same time, the Unit also offers the use of a clean room, a laboratory prepared to carry out photosensitive reactions and two laboratories to carry out reactions under pressure (up to 80 bar) equipped with reactive gases in line and all the necessary safety systems.
