March 1st 2024
The chemical industry has utilized the same, traditional batch reactor technology for decades, with minimal advancements made to most processes during this time period. Learn how the new “optimized throughput” batch reactor technology can massively benefit productivity, quality and energy efficiency at production scale, especially within the fine and specialty chemical segments.
What will you learn?
Overturning long held assumptions on the capabilities possible with batch reactor production systems.
Who should attend this webinar?
Anyone who has an interest in learning about the substantial improvement to their chemistry output possible through technology changes from that of traditional batch reactors; without having to transition to radical process change such as Flow Chemistry.
December 2023 - De Dietrich Process Systems and PTSC Announce the Launch of the Revolutionary PI QFlux Batch Reactor System in North America
PTSC is pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with DDPS US, as both parties develop the new licensing agreement for the marketing, distribution and manufacture of PTSC’s revolutionary PI QFlux batch reactor system for the North American markets.
PTSC holds patents for the PI Qflux fast batch reactor technology in the US and will continue to retain all IP and technology ownership under the arrangements.
DDPS US’ extensive capabilities in systems design and integration combined with their manufacturing expertise will be married with PTSC’s design and innovation in batch reactor and thermal fluid control packages to provide locally based advance batch reactor system technology.
"We are thrilled to bring the PI QFlux batch reactor system to North American businesses and industries. This product is a testament to our joint commitment to innovation, sustainability and efficiency, and we believe it will be a game-changer in chemical and pharmaceutical applications," said Don Doell, CEO at DDPS US.
The groundbreaking design of the PI QFlux batch reactor systems features up to five times higher heat transfer performance and 50% energy savings over conventional batch reactors, representing a significant leap forward in productivity optimization.
Andrew Wills, Managing Director and Founder of PTSC, commented, “The PI QFlux batch reactors’ exceptional and precise heat flux enables a vastly superior batch controllability and bulk scalability. With up to four times the throughput in terms of STY (Space Time Yield), the PI QFlux shorter controlled batch cycles positively impact the performance of the chemistry product quality and yield.”

September 2022 - US Patent Office Issues PTSC a Patent for the PI QFlux Reactor
PTSC Ltd has had the patent for the PI QFlux Reactor issued by the US Patent Office
Patents have also been applied in Europe, India, China and Japan
In order to achieve a heat flux of 4 times greater than conventional glass lined reactors, the PI QFlux has many innovative features which range from incremental to radical, therefore, having these technologies protected via patents marks a major milestone in the development of the PI QFlux Reactor
July 2022 - PI QFlux Industrial Scale Performance Testing Complete
PTSC has carried out extensive testing of its PI QFlux batch reactor vs an equivalent sized industry traditional batch reactor. Both reactors were constructed in glass lined steel and both operated with the same service connections.
Within one day of testing starting and continuously afterwards, the PI QFlux faultless achieved a heating/cooling rate 4 times higher than that of the conventional reactor due to both the unique design of the PI QFlux reactor and its PTSC/TFS designed TCU. Importantly and in combination, the unique design of the PI QFlux resulted in up to 50% reduction in primary heat energy consumption over that of the conventional reactor, whilst performing this feat.
PTSC who provided the PI QFlux technology as well as the new design of TCU were greatly supported in the test by Kobelco Eco Solutions Japan, who constructed the test centre and provided all of the process infrastructure required to carry out such a large full scale production trial.
May 2022 - PTSC introduces the benefits of the PI QFlux revolutionary batch reactor concept.
PTSC will be joining our sister compay Thermal Fluid Systems Ltd on their stand at CHEMUK2022.
September 2021
PTSC and Kobelco Eco Solutions Co Ltd of Japan are currently collaborating on the first full scale trials of the new PI Reactor and Single Phase Parallel Flux TCU developed by PTSC and protected under global patent approval.
This next generation batch reactor will massively increase the productivity and performance of both Alloy and Glassed Lined Reactors as well as reducing energy consumption in operation. The fully scale performance trials will be carried out at a purpose built test centre currently under construction near Kobe, Japan where the PI Reactor and TCU will be performance matched against a same volume traditional batch reactor in the first half of 2022.
