scaled-down to the pilot plant level Explanation: “pilot plants” being defined here as scaled-down continuous systems producing produce commercially relevant products and information. Pilot plants are justified on the basis of minimizing technical, economic, marketing, and production risks, and opening opportunities for more revenue and profitability. These uses and the need for material quantities for market testing can make pilot plants in particular quite sizeable. Of course, these traditionally-sized pilot plants are costly to construct and operate. There is thus a drive to obtain more and better information at the laboratory scale: to make pilot plants smaller, more efficient, and of higher value, and even bypass piloting by more extensive use of modeling and simulation scale-up techniques. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-04-09 14:31:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.xytelcorp.com/polyolefin.pdf |
