Technical equipment
Beside laboratories for
chemical and physical investigations the INC possesses a pilot plant
station and special labs for working with hazardous gases and
materials. At INC there are equipment and plants available for:
The INC has the possibiliy to use infrastructure of the
University of Leipzig with a lot of further special know how, tools and
equipment.
