H-Cube Pro Hastelloy

Hydrogenation Flow Reactor

What is the H-Cube Pro Hastelloy? 

The H-Cube® Pro Hastelloy is a flow reactor that enables continuous hydrogenation reactions with extended chemical compatibility.

All wetted parts use Hastelloy C, providing superior chemical resistance for corrosive reagents. Hydrogen is generated on-demand from water, eliminating the need for hydrogen cylinders.

 

How does it work?

  • The system generates hydrogen through the electrolysis of water.
  • The micro HPLC pump delivers pure solvent into the system, mixing it with hydrogen via a mixing valve.
  • The gas-liquid mixture enters the reaction zone, where temperature, pressure, and flow rate are controlled.
  • Once the system achieves the desired parameters and stabilizes the reaction zone, it switches the feed from solvent to the reactant solution.
  • The reaction mixture flows through a CatCart® (pre-packed column containing solid catalyst), where the reaction occurs.
  • The product exits the CatCart®, while the catalyst remains inside.
  • The system collects the product in the collection vial.
  • The system performs reactions from milligrams to grams.

 

What features does the H-Cube Pro Hastelloy?
