APICAL A1-NFR Blizzard Series

Intended to perform batch reactions and isolations in a clean, efficient and uniform manner. It is often useful to perform a fine filtration of the liquor when the process is over. But, the APICAL A1-NFR Blizzard Jacketed Nutsche Filter Reactor series is designed around best practices associated with intermediate & API crystallizations.

Offering precise temperature control and strong agitation, filter reactors are well-suited for the crystallization of consistent, ultra-pure powder & sand. The PTFE filter plate effectively retains solids, preventing product loss and increasing the viability of crystallizing small molecules. And, the incorporation of vacuum and pressure significantly increased the flexibility in performing difficult crystallizations.

These systems are chemical industry workhorses for a wide range of processes that also include isomerization, LLE, bulk fine & media filtration.

Apical has taken years of validated field experience and product trials to develop practical technologies that work every day. We combine academic principles with cutting-edge design to provide equipment that can be relied on for years to come with safe, easy operation, high throughputs and consistent product.

Filter reactors are our bread & butter.

We’ve used them all, run dozens of processes, hundreds of times. We’ve blinded filter plates and made a mess. We understand the tiny details that go into smooth operation.

With that, Apical reactors have scale-up in mind, maintaining consistent ratios of dimension as they grow to ensure a reliable transition to larger processing.

And, when scaling the ancillary systems, Apical works with trusted manufacturing partners known for their robust support staff and resilient equipment.

Considering these finer points is key to:

• high throughputs

• process development

• facility safety

• efficient commercialization.

• consistent particle size

Systems are built to DIN and cGMP standards for consistent production as well OSHA guidelines for safety. Apical takes industry guidelines seriously to ensure limited downtime, straight-forward audits and predictable operation.

The A1-NFR Blizzard Jacketed Nutsche Filter Reactor series has a wide range of jacketed reactor configurations with our unique design features and efficiency-minded details differentiating our systems in a crowded marketplace.

Glass systems built with Schott materials range in size from 300mL to 100L and our alloy systems from 50L to 20,000L.

With that, Apical has the flexibility to fit systems to your scenario without compromise.

Apical has tested a wide range of designs under production settings to pierce the veil and remove the mystique around chemical processing so business operators can focus on the customer and not a daily headache.
