Benefits Of Pilot Plant Systems
Modular process systems come with a myriad of benefits that can significantly enhance the efficiency and success of your manufacturing operation.
Here are some key advantages:
Safety Risk Mitigation
Modular process systems enable the production of hazardous chemicals on a small scale which are then immediately consumed in downstream operations. This significantly reduces, or eliminates, the need for onsite storage of highly reactive chemical intermediates thus improving overall process safety.
Technical Risk Mitigation
Even with extensive engineering, plants are continuously upgraded throughout their lifetime to compete with new technology or comply with new regulations. Modular process systems are designed for plug and play operation where equipment or even entire unit operations can be replaced with relative ease. This minimizes the CAPEX for future plant upgrades and allows users to quickly restart production during turnaround events.
High Output to Size Ratios
New technology such as reactive distillation, membrane separation, and next generation catalysts enable modern modular process systems to reach high production rates with reduced footprint. By applying best practices these small plants may compete with larger installations and oftentimes have unique benefits such as near zero emissions.
Scalability
The output of a modular process operation can be increased by simply adding additional self contained modules. This feature eliminates implementation risk by simplifying the design thus lowering cost. Furthermore, it is easy to predict expansion costs because the equipment and implementation CAPEX estimates are based on prior projects.
