FhG ICT – Pretreatment technologies

Fraunhofer ICT has several high-pressure batch and continuous reactors up to 40 dm³ volumes and up to 12 dm³/h volume flows, up to 650 °C and up to 450 bar. Potential fields of application for the equipment are e.g. reactions in super critical water, catalyst testing, hydrogenation, oxidation, depolymerization and reforming.
