IFS and its network of experts will guide companies and laboratories at different levels of their projects (information, training, feasibility studies, pilot scale).
IFS offers various training to help discover, use and develop supercritical fluids technologies.
IFS assist students in their academic project by providing appropriate and specialized training on supercritical fluid technologies.
IFS offers collective actions to experts in the field of subrcritical and supercritical fluids, including the promotion of the technology to different audiences and international study missions.
IFS brings together forty members who form the wide majority of the supercritical fluids French community. Our members are well-established companies and laboratories worth of several years of research and engineering experience in subcritical and supercritical fluids technologies as well as newly established companies in the field.
Supercritical Fluids Innovation (IFS) is now the only French association that brings together companies and researchers specialized in the field of subcritical and supercritical fluids.
Industries
A network of experts covering the whole range of the value chain (researchers, engineers, equipment manufacturers, gas suppliers, technology users).
Training and Research Centers
A network of research centers covering the wide variety of supercritical fluids processes.
Technological platforms
A network of technological platforms are available, upon request, to perform laboratory and pilot scale tests in the field of subcritical and supercritical fluids (proof of concept, scale-up validation).
Partners
IFS has a broad and dynamic international outreach through strong partnerships and collaboration with companies and laboratories working within the field of subcritical and supercritical fluids.
Our international network covers a dozen countries and gathers forty experts worldwide.
IFS is also strongly involved with the International Association of subcritical and supercritical fluids (ISASF), which one of the main tasks is to organize international scientific congresses.
IFS is connected with most European key players in the field (England, Germany, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands, Czechoslovakia ... )
