Simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography is increasingly applied as a separation technique across many industries
Simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography is a method in process chromatography that enables substance mixtures to be continuously separated and extracted into two fractions.
Knauer offers SMB systems and has recently appointed Presearch as a UK distributor.
The patented multi-port valve with 64 ports guarantees a compact design that maintains an incredibly small total dead volume.
The SMB_Guide will help to get an SMB system up and running in the shortest amount of time and will assist thoroughly in understanding the inner process of a SMB system.
Advantages of SMB technology compared to classical batch chromatography:.
Higher productivity.
A 90% reduction in the demand for solvent due to solvent recycling.
High plate counts or particle sizes are no longer required, reducing packing material costs by 80%.
Extract and raffinate are removed in high concentration, which makes it easier to expel solvent.
The patented multi-function valve enables an extremely small dead-volume.
