About pilotclave®

Buchi pilot plants are built for pressure reactions as well as for reactions under full vacuum. Different technologies and materials are used, depending on the requested process and process media.

Pilotclave® pressure reactors range from 50 - 500 liter and are all customized. To quote such systems we require detailed specifications. Safety is important with such larger scale systems, especially when doing hydrogenations and other reactions under higher pressure. The degree of automation and process control vary from simple data collection to complete automation of the system. In most cases, the reaction vessels are jacketed steel or Hastelloy® reactors.

The pilotclave® pressure reactors are used for scale up and smaller productions in pilot plants and kilo labs.

A URS (User Requirement Specification) and PID are very important for basic and detail engineering and the success of such projects and plants.
