Merrow Scientific says it has recently been finding unprecedented success supplying cutting edge systems to researchers in the UK investigating alternative fuels
Due to recent oil price increases and the limited stocks of this fuel more time and investment is being made into the search for sustainable alternatives.
Through their exclusive partnerships with international laboratory equipment manufacturers Merrow Scientific has been providing these researchers with the specialised tools required to push the boundaries of their research.
Systems include:.
Laboratory benchtop reaction systems from Autoclave Engineers.
These systems either based around fixed bed and/or slurry continuous stirred tank reactors allow the development of new synthetic fuels from natural gas (gas to liquid, GTL) and biomass using Fischer-Tropsch type methods.
High pressure gravimetric sorption measurement systems from Rubotherm allowing high pressure hydrogen storage to be investigated and quantified fully (typically up to or over 200bar).
These systems have also been used for coal gasification analysis.
Fuel cell systems for automatic evaluation and deterioration testing of single plate cells used in solid oxide fuel cells.
High pressure volumetric sorption for cost effective hydrogen, methane or other gas storage/absorption measurement.
