With illustrative examples from our laboratories, we make the case for how our digital and machine-based world is impacting on the assembly of our functional molecules in a more sustainable fashion.
Our equipment today is better able to deliver efficiencies through labour-saving methods, optimisation and scale-up, helping to minimise solvent usage, improve reaction telescoping and enhance other principles for process intensification. The machinery gives us confidence in safely handling reactive gases, exotherms and the other potentially hazardous events through remote control methods. Continuous flow chemistry processing plays a central role in delivering on this new holistic systems approach to synthesis.

与我们的机器一起生活:走向更可持续的未来
通过实验室中的说明性例子,我们证明了数字和基于机器的世界如何以更可持续的方式影响功能分子的组装。
如今,我们的设备能够更好地通过节省劳力的方法,优化和扩大规模来提高效率,从而帮助最大程度地减少溶剂用量,改善反应伸缩性并增强其他工艺强化原则。该机器使我们有信心通过远程控制方法安全地处理反应性气体,放热和其他潜在的危险事件。连续流化学处理在提供这种新的整体系统合成方法中发挥着核心作用。
