Catalysis Preparation
Avantium has developed high-throughput catalyst preparation platforms based on scalable preparation methods. These include:
- Automated impregnation
- Automated coprecipitation
- Hydrothermal synthesis
- Filtration
- Drying
- Grinding, sieving
- Calcinations under various atmospheres
Catalyst preparation workflow
After consultation with its industrial partners Avantium's preparation experts will select the most appropriate routes in order to prepare optimal catalysts for the application at issue. Where applicable, commercial catalysts and metal and mixed metal oxide supports will be used. These are available from Avantium's large catalyst library.
The expertise of Avantium's staff coupled to the use of scalable methodologies help cut the time-to-market for new catalysts discovered in collaborative programs.
