Flow Chemistry and The Flow Chemistry Masterclass
Event overview
Flow chemistry has been used in petrochemical and bulk chemical production for over 100 years, but has only seen significant interest in the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries in the past 10 years. This course aims to give an introduction to this exciting and revolutionary field, to familiarise attendees with the current state of the art.
A wide range of highlights from the flow chemistry literature will be discussed, from both academia and industry, with a focus on translating conventional reactions to flow processes. Attendees will become familiar with a number of distinct types of flow reactors, allowing the correct reactor to be chosen to suit the required chemistry. Emphasis will also be placed on the inline and online monitoring of flow reactions, along with the hazards and pitfalls associated with scaling up flow reactions.
MASTERCLASS IN FLOW CHEMISTRY | FRIDAY 5 JUNE 2020
After the success of the 1st Masterclass in 2019 we are back at the University of Graz, see below for more information on this unique one-day flow chemistry lab session hosted by the “Center for Continuous Flow Synthesis and Processing” (CCFLOW) at the University of Graz.

Masterclass Information
Optional Masterclass on Flow Chemistry | Friday 5 June 2020 | University of Graz | 8.00 am until 4.30 pm
Although attendees of the Flow Chemistry Course will be well acquainted with the basic principles of flow chemistry and the advantages it can offer, the real “tricks of the trade” can only be learned in the lab. This one-day flow chemistry lab session, hosted by the “Center for Continuous Flow Synthesis and Processing” (CCFLOW), offers a unique hands-on experience of flow chemistry in action.
Participants will learn to select and operate a suitable flow reactor, gaining an understanding of the equipment and techniques involved. The experienced team at CCFLOW will offer practical advice on the set-up and execution of continuous processes. In the state-of-the-art laboratory space, small groups of participants will see live demonstrations of flow reactor technologies, including:
Single- and multiphase flow chemistry
Gas-liquid flow chemistry, mass flow controllers
High-temperature/pressure process windows
Glass, Hastelloy and silicon carbide plate-based flow platforms
Flow photochemistry and electrochemistry
In-line and at-line process analytics (IR, NMR, UV, UHPLC)
Liquid-liquid and gas-liquid separations
Piston-, syringe- and peristaltic pumps
3D printed reactors (steel, caramics)
HOW TO ATTEND
Places for the Masterclass are limited and the first option will go to those delegates who are booked onto the Flow Chemistry Course in Graz.
If you are booked onto the course you have the option to select the Masterclass at an additional cost of €700 per person.

It was overall an excellent scientific update and the CCFlow lab visit a must!
Flow Chemistry Course and Masterclass
An excellent course summarising the state of the art in flow chemistry. Highly recommended.

A wide variety of examples were given; they helped me understand the concepts and will be a great reference to have for future work. My questions were all answered very satisfactorily.
