Development of a novel microreactor-based calorimeter for the study of fast exothermal reactions in liquid phase

Marie-Agnès Schneider

Following several tragic chemical accidents that have occurred in recent years, some directives concerning chemical process safety have been issued. The Seveso directive, for example, requires a precise description of the consequences of a possible chemica ...

A new tool for the study of polymerization under supercritical conditions - preliminary results

Thierry Meyer, Sophie Fortini, Philip Nising, Frédéric Lavanchy

Efficient stirring is needed to realize heat flow anal. with a thermally homogeneous medium. Because dispersion polymn. with supercrit. fluids can be destabilized under stirring, a preliminary target has been to find a compromise between synthesis and basi ...

Supercritical calorimetry: an emerging field

Thierry Meyer, Sophie Fortini, Frédéric Lavanchy

Calorimetry (adiabatic, isothermal, differential, oscillating or acoustic) is generally based on heat-flow measurements of the studied system. Most of its applications are dedicated to kinetic-parameter detn., safety studies and process optimization, phase ...

The development and characterization of a high resolution bio-reaction calorimeter for weakly exothermic cultures

Urs von Stockar, Ian William Marison

A unique bench-scale heat flux calorimeter is described, which is capable of detecting the low heat signal of an animal cell culture (a max. of 200 mW/l is produced with a batch culture of SF9 insect cells). After the tech. modifications that enhanced the ...

Development of a large-scale biocalorimeter to monitor and control bioprocesses

Urs von Stockar, Ian William Marison, Patrick Pugeaud

Calorimetry has shown real potential at bench-scale for chem. and biochem. processes. The aim of this work was therefore to scale-up the system by adaptation of a std. com. available 300-L pilot-scale bioreactor. To achieve this, all heat flows entering or ...

Processing Of Microcellular Sic Foams .1. Curing Kinetics Of Polycarbosilane In Air

Andreas Mortensen

Curing kinetics of commercial polycarbosilane have been measured using differential scanning calorimetry in air between 140 and 220 degrees C. It was found that the total heat of curing increases linearly with temperature. At constant temperature, the rate ...
