Abstract:
1. A device for carrying out chemical or physical experiments in parallel on process substances to develop technical methods, comprising a plurality of individual reactors for holding the process substances, temperature and pressure control systems for controlling the temperature and pressure of the individual reactors independently of one another, wherein the individual reactors each have: a pressure-tight chamber with a separable sample vessel, and optionally a stirring device, a heating instrument, cooling instrument, or both, for individual temperature adjustment of each sample vessel, a monitoring unit for monitoring and, in cooperation with said temperature and pressure control systems, controlling, at least the pressure and the temperature in the individual reactors, a pressure-tight lid, the individual pressure-tight lids, the chambers or both having, independently of one another, feed lines and optionally discharge lines for individual process substances, and the lids of a plurality of the chambers being simultaneously closable by a common lid closer, and wherein said pressure control systems optionally include pressure reducing lines, and wherein the substance feed lines and discharge lines, and the optional pressure reducing lines, are connected to a substance distributor unit, a supply unit, or both, which optionally connect the feed lines and discharge lines, and optionally the pressure reducing lines, selectively to one another or to a main substance feed line, a main substance discharge line, a main pressure reducing line or which connect a combination of said lines.
