Used Automated Flash Chromatography Systems
A flash chromatography system is the process of purifying chemical mixtures by rapidly separating compounds using air pressure. Flash chromatography is popular among lab researchers due to its simplicity and speed.
Like other chromatographic techniques, flash chromatography follows the principle of column chromatography, which separates the components of chemical mixtures based on their mobile phase and stationary phase. While flash chromatography uses compressed air, the column technique uses smaller silica gels and pressurized gas.
Choosing the Right Flash Chromatography System
Understanding your research needs comes in handy when selecting a flash chromatography system. These devices can be expensive, so it's practical to make the most of your equipment.
Design and Setup
Design and setup are primary conditions when choosing lab instruments, especially if you have limited space and want to remain frugal. In flash chromatography, the essentials are a powerful pump, a fully automated system, an optimal flow rate and a huge surface area.
User-Friendliness
Lab work is meticulous, so there's no need to make it even more complicated with instruments that are hard to operate. Some flash chromatography systems come equipped with advanced programming features for data validation. Equipment that allows parameter adjustments and process automation are also wonderful options.
Expansion Features
As you dive deeper into your research, it's possible for your equipment needs to grow as well. A scalable flash chromatography system makes expansion easy and lowers costs while ensuring your equipment is still suitable for your needs.
Size
It's common for facilities to run out of space to house all their equipment. After all, many laboratory instruments are bulky and take up a significant amount of floor space. This characteristic makes size an important consideration for flash chromatography systems. Opt for a system with a small footprint without compromising functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Flash chromatography is the process of separating compounds using pressurized air and the stationary phase to create pure solutions of various chemicals.
No. Though high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) does essentially the same job as a flash chromatography system, these methods vary in their operations and results. HPLCs usually come with a significantly higher price tag, but offer more precision by operating at higher pressures and with smaller filtering particles. Flash chromatography systems, comparatively, are easier to set up and produce faster results.
There are many types of chromatography, but four of the most common methods are:
- Gas chromatography (GC): Designed for the separation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), alcohols, aromatics and similar materials.
- Liquid chromatography (LC): Allows for the separation of solvents, especially those that include non-volatile and thermally unstable liquids. Flash chromatography systems fall under this category.
- High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC): This is a highly specialized form of LC that enables purer results.
- Thin-layer chromatography (TLC): TLC uses a thin layer of adsorbent material that enables separation of mixtures through capillary action. Paper chromatography is a common example of TLC.
Flash chromatography systems use pressurized air to push a solvent (mobile phase) through a layer of adsorbent solids, like silica gel, known as the stationary phase. Some materials will pass through faster than others, allowing for each material to be collected separately as they exit the system. The results are purer versions of the compounds.
