THE LATEST IN AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGY
Our unique proven approach to designing and building laboratory scale systems and attention to detail ensures our customers’ laboratory solution requirements and expectations are fully met, if not exceeded.
Zeton's unique solutions, leading processes and industry experience can help you conquer lab scale systems and pilot plant scale up across even the most challenging process development niches. Zeton's fully automated lab scale systems are delivered ready-to-run with your preferred software and complete with engineering and operational documentation.
- From single to multi-reactor configurations, Zeton's custom designed and built lab scale systems have been manufactured to handle catalyst loadings of less than one gram, with fractionation/recycle and integrated analytical capabilities.
- Microreactor and small laboratory scale systems for catalyst testing can be designed and built with fixed bed, fluidized bed and/or continuous stirred-tank reactors.
Zeton's dedicated manufacturing bays in Enschede (The Netherlands) and Oakville (Canada) facilitate the design and fabrication of lab scale systems for delivery to customers worldwide. We also offer engineering and field services including on-site installation and start-up support.

CASE STUDY
Case Study – Lab Scale System: University of Cambridge
The University of Cambridge invited Zeton to design a custom lab scale system for using magnetic resonance techniques in catalyst testing. The goal was to spatially map chemical composition, concentration gradients, temperature, and gas and liquid flow profiles within a working reactor. Zeton solved the challenge of integrating a non-metallic, non-magnetic reactor section into an NMR spectrometer, delivering a system capable of testing scaled-down industrial and microchannel reactors across a range of sizes and…
