Chemical Engineering Research Laboratory

This laboratory is the workplace for Final Year Project Student (Undergraduate), Higher Degree by Research (HDR) Student & Researcher to conduct their experiments, measurements and scientific research projects. It can accommodate up to 25 students at one time, is equipped with sophisticated lab equipment and includes a fumehood for the safe use of hazardous materials.

1. Bioreactor System, Biostat A Plus 2L, Sartorious, German

biostataplus

The equipment contains three components: an autoclaved bioreactor, a control unit and a software application that can control different parameters like temperature, pH, pO2, stirrer velocity or different gas flows. Bioreactor Biostat A plus is used for Microbial culture; growth of bacteria,yeast and fungi and ideal for Cell culture; growth of animal, insect and plant cells.

2. Supercritical Fluid Extractor System (SFE), SFT-100, Supercritical Fluid Technologies Inc

SFE is used for separating/ extracting one component from another without leaving toxic residues in extracts and without the risk of thermal degradation of processed products. It is effective in the separation of essential oils and its derivatives for use in the food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and other related industries.

3. Incubator 240L, BF240, Binder
