Application of chiller technology to laboratory distillations
7 Apr 2022This application note investigates the difference that accurate and reproducible temperature control of a condenser body can have on solvent recovery. The application note demonstrates how the Huber range of benchtop chillers promises to improve cooling supply stability and control resulting in increased solvent recovery.

Refrigerators Freezers and CryogenicsRefrigerators, Freezers & Cryogenics can be used for preservation or experimental purposes. Types of freezers include deep freeze, -80C°C, ultra-low temperature, explosion proof, cryogenic and controlled rate freezers. Freezing is also used in freeze-drying equipment for dehydration processes. Feature to consider in freezers include temperature control and recorders, failure alarms and self-closing mechanisms.Evaporators and Freeze DryersCentrifugal evaporation is used for solvent removal from a sample. This is a useful technique for sample concentration or sample drying. Many centrifugal evaporators are modular with a central vacuum pump for generating low pressure. Useful features of evaporators or vacuum ovens include minimal solvent bumping, solvent resistance, computer control, temperature regulation and benchtop design.Solvent MonitoringSynthetic ChemistryDistillation
