With more than 20 years of experience in flow process design, Microinnova has successfully executed over 200 projects in flow chemistry, emphasizing safety and product quality in exothermic reactions covering a wide range of organic chemistries. Various polymerization reaction projects, including free-radical and ionic polymerizations, as well as polyester and oligomer synthesis have been performed. Addressing safety concerns, Microinnova has expertise in handling materials with viscosities up to 100,000 mPas. Our polymer processes benefit from a specific cooling surface of up to 200 m2/m3, featuring a high k-value and narrow residence time distribution. Projects involving polymers encompass end-capping, functional group exchange, and cross-linking. Considering our expertise in more than 80 chemistries, we are your partner of choice in your quest to improve your processes.

Microinnova’s proficiency extends to halogenation reactions, showcasing significant experience in halogenating aromatic systems with elemental halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine) and hydrohalogenation with hydro-halides. Our core competence lies in flow process design and scale-up of challenging processes.

Synthetic fuels are a key part of future energy concepts. Microinnova has worked on several projects toward CO2 capture, methanol synthesis, Fischer Tropsch synthesis, and other gas catalytic reactions. Within the BIOGO project, we have built modular lab plant systems. Flow chemistry offers improved safety, mass and heat transfer, as well as specialized condition handling. It responds to process needs and allows for the exploration of new conditions. Additionally, telescoping reactions in a continuous flow setup, streamlines processes and boosts process efficiency. Get in touch with our team to boost your processes to a new level.
