 | ADIABATIC CALORIMETRY & the VSP II
The assessment of runaway reactions and thermal decompositions is a critical part of the safe operation of a chemical process or drying operation. Obtaining laboratory data able to be scaled-up to the production size of most plant operations requires both heat losses and thermal inertia of the plant to be replicated. Adiabatic calorimetry can provide data for consequence assessment, emergency relief systems and thermal stability assessment.

 | PREVENT
A structured procedure to reduce the need for an extensive reaction hazard assessment of a process. This technique permits a faster and more cost-effective mechanism for ensuring an effective basis of reaction safety using valid and proven engineering solutions - particularly if pressure relief is to be employed.

 | REACTION CALORIMETRY DATASHEET
Do you understand the thermochemistry and kinetics of your reactions? Many companies don’t and some have suffered major incidents as a result of scale-up or process modification without a basic appreciation of the reaction thermochemistry. This datasheet explains some of the benefits of Reaction Calorimetry data for process safety and scale-up.

 | THERMAL STABILITY TESTING DATASHEET
Do you know the thermal limits of your materials? Almost all materials will undergo some form of thermal oxidation, decomposition or self-reaction at elevated temperatures. It is therefore a prerequisite of safe chemical manufacture and processing that the thermal stability limits of the materials are understood when working at elevated temperatures.
