Testimonials

AVA increased batch to batch reproducibility at Graphenea

“In a chemical reaction, many parameters impact the final product – the raw materials, temperature, reaction time, addition time and the order inwhich chemicals are added.

With AVA software, all these parameters can be controlled with a single program in a simple way. When batch to batch reproducibility is needed, automating the chemistry is crucial.”

Beatriz Alonso, Research Chemist, Graphenea, Spain

AVA software aids process safety and design at Sai Life Sciences

“The AVA software is also really helpful because it allows us to program the chemistry, to be able to operate those chemistries in the Reactor-Ready and it gathers all of the relevant process data, which actually helps us to understand about the process safety and start to think about how do we need to design our process.”

Andrew Kennedy, Vice President & Site Head, Sai Life Sciences

AVA runs reactions while Lubrizol work on other things

“We can now continue to run reactions overnight, rather than stopping and restarting the following day, which would mean deviating from any potential manufacturing processes. A reaction that could take up to a week can now be completed in a 24-hour period.

Our reproducibility has also increased massively since using AVA software, which has saved us time and money.”

Emma Playfoot, Experimental Chemist, Lubrizol

Webinar: Scaling up exothermic additions in the lab

Are you currently using beakers, dropping funnels and syringes to dose your reactions with a liquid reagent? How long do you stand around tweaking your drip rate? What if you had software that could control those liquid additions, with the benefits of data logging, feedback loops and safety overrides.

Webinar: Consistent Scaling Up

Scaling up chemical reactions can present a number of challenges with respect to efficient mixing, mass transfer, controlling exothermic reactions, heat transfer and reaction kinetics.

In this webinar we discussed some simple guidelines which apply when scaling chemical reactions up or scaling down to predict or reproduce conditions observed in the larger scale manufacturing environment.

Webinar: Are you running your overnight reactions safely?

Are you running your overnight reactions unsafely? Lab control software can help you perform safe and efficient unattended reactions

In this webinar we will discuss how reactions can be data logged as well as safety feedback loops put in place to ensure that reactions can be left unattended overnight or longer by using lab control software.

Webinar: Automation of chemical processes and remote data-logging in R&D laboratories

This webinar will be a case study of a scale-up group, using an automated addition to control an exothermic reaction, and the use of safety feedback loops to pause and restart the addition based on process temperature. At this time of social distancing in our laboratories when we need to minimise the number of people in the lab, automation and data-logging can help.
