SMB System for Ion-Exchange Chromatography
The XPure-C Carrousel System is a traditional SMB technology widely implemented in sugar, chemical, mining and API industry for continuous chromatography/ion-exchange processes. The simple construction and engineering provide a reliable, continuous system due to the high-quality components and materials. The ease of use makes the system suitable for large scale processes like sugar processing. Along with industrial units, XPure also delivers XPure-C mini lab/pilot carrousel system as a powerful development tool to evaluate design parameters, perform process optimization and scale-up.
- Easy to install, use, and maintain at different scales of operation
- Proven carrousel technology based on a central multi-port valve
- Commonly used to handle large streams of several ton/h
- High flexibility of number of columns to establish an effective process
- High degree for flexibility for both equipment and automation design
Composition and Specifications of XPure-C
- Rotating multi-port fluid distributor valve
- Multiple pumps for different chromatography zones
- Automation suitable for safe and reliable large-scale operations
- Design and construction meeting process performance and safety requirements
- Flexible number of chromatography columns ranging between 4 to 30
