A special need? We have a supercritical solution
We provide our equipment and know-how to serve your products.
With more than 25 years of experience in the field of supercritical fluids, our experts support you in the development of your project or new innovative technologies using supercritical fluids.
Our dedicated laboratory has several laboratory and pilot-scale equipment allowing us to carry out feasibility studies, process optimization and scale-up to industrial scale.
A laboratory dedicated to your needs
Our available equipment allows us to carry out various innovative processes using supercritical CO2:
- Extraction from solid matter (SFE)
- Extraction or fractionation from liquid matter (SFF)
- Drying of polymers or innovative materials (SFD)
- Formulation of nanoparticles (SFP)
- Impregnation of fabrics or different supports
- Sterilization in a supercritical medium
- Synthesis in a supercritical medium
- Solubility tests in a supercritical medium
- Extraction in subcritical water
From idea to reality
Have you been convinced by the exceptional quality of your product obtained and by the efficiency of the technology? Let us demonstrate its economic aspect to you.
In addition to our laboratory tests, we propose to carry out a complete study to define the equipment dedicated to your production needs as well as an OPEX/CAPEX economic study.
Our goal is to offer you the best possible solution combining quality, efficiency and profitability.
