The situation
Previously they were using traditional water condensers in their teaching labs. The problem was a poor water supply, erratic flow and pressure. The water temperature was too hot in summer leading to inefficient cooling. The University had made a commitment to reduce water consumption and increase efficiency of containing solvents, and were looking for solutions to help them.
The objective
The aim was to have a more reliable condensing, year-round, to reduce water usage and to reduce tubing and the risk of detached water tubes due to over pressure.
The results
- More reliable condensation than traditional water condensers
- Excellent performance even with low boiling point solvents like dichloromethane
- Less solvent lost to environment
- Safer chemistry – no risk of flooding
I aim to eliminate all use of pass-through water cooling on campus. The Findenser is the solution.Marc Rubin, Case Western Reserve University
