Continuous Flow Technology


 The continuous flow technology features high mass and heat transfer efficiency, intrinsic safety, good process repeatability, little scale-up effects, and automated continuous operation. This technology allows hazardous processes to run safely and efficiently under controllable conditions and ensures safety and reduces pollution at its source. The technology is also the globally recognized green route for drug R&D and production;

 Jiuzhou Pharma is capable of efficient continuous flow process screening as well as equipment development and application. We have built a useful, flexible, scalable, modular continuous reaction platform that meets the needs of fully continuous production of various drugs through modular combinations and automated control;

 The platform supports a range of reactions, including nitration, ozonolysis, Hofmann degradation, Grignard reaction, oxidation, low-temperature reactions (−50°C), high-temperature reactions (200°C), Curtius rearrangement, catalytic hydrogenation, photochemical reactions, and reactions that involve high-energy compounds such as azides and ethyl diazoacetate;

 To date, we have developed continuous flow processes for multiple innovative API projects on the continuous flow platform, and achieved scale-up commercial production.
