Continental Technologies designs, fabricates, installs and operates custom, skidded processing equipment. We specialize in pilot plants, skid-mounted units and bench-scale systems fuels, chemicals, polymers and catalysts.

With an emphasis on safety, ease of operation and build quality, the units we build deliver small quantities to thousands of barrels per day.

Continental Technologies:

• Thinks through ideas with you to fully understand your application goals and challenges
• Combines proven and novel technologies, ingenuity and experience to optimize system performance and operability
• Has first-hand knowledge of working with hardened equipment for operation in extreme environments
• Values safety and the need to address standards and regulations
• Supports your staff throughout fabrication and operation
• Fabricates using modular construction

Continental Technologies can help you get the data and product essential to rapid feedstock testing and validation, process optimization, catalyst development and small lot manufacturing.

Operability. Accessibility. Safety. We focus on what’s critical to the people who run, modify and maintain the system. We approach your project as though we will be running the system ourselves.

Continental Technologies works closely with you to:

• Reduce energy use
• Cut capital expenditure
• Shrink plant profile and footprint
• Provide environmental advantages
• Enhance safety analysis

Continental Technologies’ staff has extensive, practical experience. We complement our engineering expertise with lessons learned in the field – a powerful combination enabling us to approach your project from an end user’s perspective.

No one understands operation better than the engineers and technicians at Continental Technologies. That unique ability enables us to operate the equipment for you at our facility.

We estimate that engaging us to operate your pilot plant in our shop can result in cost savings of as much as 20% The equipment won't need to be skid-mounted, shipped or installed, cutting costs and speeding time to operation.

We'd also gladly host your team of operators as well, providing as much assistance and training as you want.

Easy start-up and operation, flexible configurability and an ergonomically designed user interface - for both automated and manual controls - are critical to on-time technology development.
