Quick-fire Process Development Case Studies – Five Lessons Learned

As a process research engineer, all chemical engineering disciplines merge upon us to make us most effective in our roles. This gives us opportunities to become deep technical experts narrow in certain fields of chemical engineering or to become ‘expert generalists’ that work across disciplines to bring it all together. In this talk, five lessons learned will be discussed in a quick fire manner that spans across Reaction Engineering, Solids Processing, Process Modeling, Economics, and Technology Transfer. With appropriate time, cost, and expertise everything can be done with a high level of success. Those three constraints are not always available to us in this fast pace world, which can lead to some lessons learned.
