MICROWAVES AN COALS FOR TECHNOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS

SCIENTIFIC INFRASTRUCTURE

The MCAT group has a microwave heating laboratory where different types of microwaves are available (single mode, multimode, etc.), with different configurations and with the possibility of on-line connection with gas analysis by chromatography and mass spectrometry.

On the other hand, the MCAT group also has a laboratory for the synthesis of polymers, as well as their porous characterization (surface area, pore size distribution, pore volume, porosity, He density and apparent density), thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and electrochemical characterization of materials.

Finally, the MCAT group has the necessary equipment to evaluate the different synthesized materials as enzyme support, manufacturing and characterization of columns for separation processes.
