While liquid chromatography is a long-time established technique for laboratory applications, the use of liquid chromatography for industrial processing is not nearly as widespread. However, it is rapidly gaining in popularity. Process and development engineers are gradually discovering the power and flexibility of liquid chromatography, and new liquid chromatography technological developments are greatly improving those capabilities at the same time.
A version of process liquid chromatography that has been in existence for some time, but is now seeing rapid growth due to new applications is Simulated Moving Bed (SMB) chromatography. SMB makes use of a series of ...
