This integrated laboratory suite is designed for studying the formation of nature-inspired and synthetic mineral phases, and their interactions with nutrients and contaminants. It is equipped with two anaerobic chamber workstations, small-scale chemostat reactor, Schlenk Line, setup for liquid degassing to remove O2, sample autodiluter for trace element analysis and standard chemical laboratory equipment such as analytical balances, centrifuges, fume hoods, hotplate stirrers, shaking incubators, ovens, furnaces, dry block heaters, reflux setups, sonicator baths, and pH meters. Hydrothermal synthesis is also possible in closed Teflon lined cells heated either conductively or by microwave irradiation.
