  • For a nasal spray production fill-finish solution that offers unparalleled versatility, look no further! The Hull i-Dositecno BI and MI Nasal Spray Filling Machines simplify your manufacturing workflow to enable accurate and consistent rotary filling, stoppering and capping. With simple servo-driven motion-controlled design they can fill up to 50 or 200 units per minute (upm).

  • For more than 20 years, Eurofins PSS Insourcing Solutions® has partnered with biotech and pharmaceutical companies to successfully validate and open new or remodeled facilities, meeting regulatory requirements. With a proven track record across numerous facility projects, our flexible, client-focused model ensures seamless integration with internal teams and third-party vendors, delivering high satisfaction and long-term partnerships.

  • Geospace Technologies offers a complete line of AMI water meter connector cables specifically designed and manufactured to meet the rugged requirements for in-pit, underwater applications. Geospace’s unique design ensures total moisture sealing for even the toughest underwater environments, yet they are easily re-entered for troubleshooting a transponder or for a meter swap-out. Versions are available that utilize molded-in-place or potted terminators for sealing. Either version is totally intermateable with the Itron Inline Connector.

  • Fast-track your market entry with our robust aseptic filling platform. The Flex-Line™ Robotic Filler provides full integration of Scientific Products filling and Comecer isolation technologies for a seamless process from order through Validation.

  • Hot air sterilization tunnels are used to continuously depyrogenate pharmaceutical glass items, such as vials and syringes, after they are washed and before they enter a filling machine.

Catalysts

Catalysts work by changing the structure of a molecule or by bonding to reactant molecules causing them to combine, react, and release a product or energy.  For example, a catalyst is required in order for oxygen and hydrogen to bond, combine and produce water.

Catalysts increase the rate of chemical reactions. Unlike a reagent that gets consumed as apart of the chemical reaction, catalysts do not get consumed in the reaction. They can actually participate in multiple chemical transformations.Catalysts can be organic, synthetic or metal.

All processes need energy to take place. Processes require a very high level of energy in order to spark or start if a catalyst isn’t present.  When a catalyst is present the amount of energy required to spark the reaction is lowered and that makes the reaction happen faster and more efficiently.

Catalytic effects vary depending on other substances present that are a part of the chemical reactions. There are certain substances that can inhibit the effectiveness of a catalyst like poisons, and other substances that promote or increase the effect of the catalyst.  Inhibitors or negative catalysts are very important in medicine to treat mental illnesses, high blood pressure, cancer and many other diseases.

Catalysts are often used to help crack, or split, larger organic molecules like hydrocarbons into simpler molecules. It does this by breaking carbon-carbon bonds. The speed of the splitting process depends heavily on what specific catalyst is used and the temperature.  Applications of this technology include oil and petrochemical industries.
