Process technologies to
support circularity
Sultzer
Entex Rust & Mitschke
This company will showcase its
comprehensive mass-transfer portfolio
(photo), process technology
solutions, technology licensing and
engineering capabilities, placing a
particular focus on sustainable production
and circular strategies. This
will feature a virtual reality (VR) area,
where visitors will be able to explore
full-scale photorealistic reproductions
of real-world processing and
manufacturing facilities that leverage
the company's equipment. Users
will be able to learn how plants can
maximize throughput, product quality
and energy efficiency, driving
their productivity and sustainability.
The group will also showcase
purification technologies that help
to address challenges in plastic recycling
and upcycling processes.

A new generation of extruders
for laboratory use
Fraunhofer IMM3
This company has expanded its
range of modular extruders with a
new planetary roller extruder for laboratory
use, the 30 Series (photo).
This unit's size makes it possible to
perform series of tests for formulation
and product development at
laboratory scale. The design features
of the new extruder mean that the
advantages of other extruder models
- absolute temperature control, capabilities
to mix active substances,
low-shear thin-layer rolling-out and
large surface exchange - can now
be applied in material-critical areas
in quantities of several hundred
grams per hour. Hall 4.0, Stand B8

This microreactor is designed
for electrochemistry scaleup
This organization has developed a
flexible and scaleable microreactor
for electrochemical conversions
(photo). Parallel arranged electrodes,
small distance between the electrodes,
and their operation under
laminar flow conditions lead to homogeneous
and beneficial process
conditions overcoming limitations
linked to conventional electrosyntheses.
The reactor concept, based
on a plate-stack design approach,
allows not only the operation of
one electrochemical cell in various
configurations, but also the extension
to a larger number of cells for
scaleup. Now, this expansion approach
has been validated through
an application of Kolbe electrolysis
increasing the number of cells in
the stack up to four. Starting from
fatty acids obtainable from biomass,
Kolbe electrolysis allows the synthesis
of valuable chemicals. EnviISM_MA0171_220706
