At EDIBON, we continue to move forward in our mission to transform technical and scientific education around the world. That is why we are proud to announce one of our latest installations: a fully equipped laboratory at the Department of Chemical Engineering of the University of Florida, in the United States.
This ambitious project has made it possible to provide the university with a wide range of advanced equipment designed by EDIBON for practical training in key areas such as Fluid Mechanics, Chemical Engineering, and Thermodynamics & Thermotechnics.
This collaboration represents a new milestone for us, reaffirming the trust that top-tier academic institutions place in our equipment and educational solutions. The University of Florida, internationally recognized for its academic and research excellence, has committed to high-quality hands-on training by incorporating cutting-edge technology that will allow students to learn through direct experimentation with real industrial processes.
A state-of-the-art laboratory
The new laboratory includes various computer-controlled training equipment that allow for the simulation, visualization, and analysis of real industrial processes in a safe, educational, and highly interactive environment. The installed equipment includes:
- Computer Controlled Heat Transfer Series (TSTCC): A set of didactic equipment, designed to thoroughly study the different heat transfer mechanisms—conduction, convection, and radiation—through practical experiments.
- Computer Controlled Continuous Distillation Unit (UDCC): A key piece of equipment for studying continuous fractional distillation, essential in the chemical and process industries, enabling continuous and automated separation of liquid mixtures.
- Computer Controlled Heat Exchangers Training System (TICC): Designed to analyze different types of heat exchangers and their behavior under various operating conditions.
- Computer Controlled Series/Parallel Pumps Bench (PBSPC): An ideal unit for studying the performance of centrifugal pumps, their configuration in series or parallel, and their impact on flow and pressure.
- Computer Controlled Crystallization Unit (QUCC): Allows observation and control of the crystallization process of a solution, a fundamental operation in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
In addition to these equipment, the lab also features other complementary equipment and accessories that enhance the learning experience and provide a deeper understanding of the physical and chemical phenomena involved.
At EDIBON, we sincerely thank Dr. Rinaldi and the entire team at the Department of Chemical Engineering for their trust. This installation not only marks a significant advancement in technical education at the University of Florida but also highlights the positive impact of collaboration between technology companies and universities committed to educational excellence.
We will continue to work with passion and dedication to bring practical engineering education to more corners of the world, contributing to more effective, interactive, and future-ready training.
Because the future of engineering is built today—with technology, knowledge, and collaboration.
