Technical Applications for iFischer in Australia
In demanding refineries and chemical processing plants, accurate fractionation and solvent recovery are critical for both quality control and environmental compliance. iFischer systems excel in these harsh environments by achieving up to 30 theoretical plates even under high vacuum conditions. For facilities requiring specialised process setups, integrating the iFischer Custom ILUDEST Distillation Unit Concentrating Hydrogen Peroxide allows engineers to safely manage volatile mixtures with automated PC-integrated control. Additionally, their advanced testing setups, such as the iFischer CORIO C-BT9 LAUDA RP 3090 CW Cooling ASTM Combi-Fischer AUTODEST 800AC, provide Australian petrochemical laboratories with highly reproducible crude oil analysis for robust process simulation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of distillation processes do these systems support?
The equipment supports a wide variety of thermal separation processes, including batch and continuous distillation, thin-film evaporation, and specialised crude oil fractionation for complex industrial mixtures.
How do the systems maintain separation efficiency under high vacuum?
The plants utilise precision-engineered column internals and robust vacuum control technology. This allows them to achieve up to 30 theoretical plates, ensuring highly efficient separation of heat-sensitive compounds without thermal degradation.
Are the crude oil distillation units compliant with international testing standards?
Yes, the automated crude oil systems are designed specifically to meet and exceed rigorous international testing requirements, including full compliance with ASTM D2892 and ASTM D5236 standard methods.
Can the equipment be scaled from the laboratory to a pilot plant?
Absolutely. The engineering team specialises in scaling thermal separation processes, offering continuous development from micro-litre benchtop laboratory units up to large-scale industrial and pilot-plant processing systems.
Does the manufacturer provide custom-built extraction solutions?
Yes, bespoke engineering is a core strength of the brand. They continuously tailor liquid-liquid extraction units and phase equilibrium apparatuses to meet the exact chemical compatibility and throughput requirements of individual customers.
What local support is provided for installing these complex plants in Australia?
