The application spectrum of the simulation tools and services includes the optimization of filter media and elements (e.g. efficiency, service life), of field flow fractionation processes as well as the computer-aided investigation of reactive flows in porous media.
With the help of computer models and simulations, new products can already be examined for their performance during the design phase. This reduces the number of time-consuming and costly tests on prototypes, in some cases considerably.
