EQUIPEX

Equipex : equipment of excellence. These are projects funded by the PIA to improve the equipment of French scientific research laboratories.

EQUIPEX REALCAT

"Advanced High-Throughput Technologies Platform for Biorefineries Catalysts Design".

REALCAT is a high-throughput platform coordinated by the UCCS, unique in the world, dedicated to innovation in heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis and biocatalysis, as well as their combination through the new ultra-efficient concept of " hybrid catalysis ". This integrated blend of skills and technologies enables the development of high-level, catalytic R & D programs on hot topics, including environmental and economic issues. The versatility of the platform is such that it also offers the opportunity to carry out projects in the field of materials development.

At full capacity, REALCAT is able to cover every stage of catalyst development: The platform is equipped with automated synthesis robots of catalysts and biocatalysts, rapid characterization tools and high-speed tools. evaluation of catalytic performance.
