This summer, the Journal of Membrane Science published a paper focusing on automated control of Trans Membrane Pressure (TMP) in a Single-Pass Tangential Flow Filtration (SP-TFF) system. Control was substantially improved by using an Equilibar® single-use dome-loaded multi-orifice back pressure regulator (BPR) rather than traditional technologies. Authored by Shashi Malladi, Michael Coolbaugh and other top Read More

The May/June issue of Water Technology Magazine features a six-page article by Equilibar founder Jeff Jennings that provides an overview of dome loaded regulators. The article compares dome-loaded technology to traditional spring-loaded technology. It also explains the differences between a pressure reducing regulator and a back pressure regulator. “Over the years we’ve learned that there Read More

Happy New Year! If you haven’t checked out the Equilibar YouTube Channel in a while, you may want to do so. We have created several new and informative videos in the last few months.

The Novartis-MIT Center for Continuous Manufacturing conducts research into the emerging field of continuous manufacturing of pharmaceutical compounds. Dr. Stephen Born, working with Dr. Bernard Trout Group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has conducted extensive flow chemistry research using micro-reactors and membrane separation of organics and aqueous phases. This research has been published in the paper Read More

The Equilibar® back pressure regulator is being used by the Chemical Engineering Department at the University of Texas at Austin to study membrane fouling in applications such as industrial water purification. The stainless steel regulators are being used together with the Equilibar QPV electronic pilot regulator to create a high precision low pressure control for Read More
