Lubrizol's Efficient Scale-Up & Process Control
Connecting the Dots Between Benchtop and In-situ Process Analysis
活動概述
- Improve process development and scale-up by leveraging reaction calorimetry and in-situ process analysis
- Lubrizol's methodology to increase speed to market and enhance productivity of R&D teams
- Develop, pilot, and implement in-situ FTIR on a production scale
This webinar focuses on how to improve process development and scale-up by leveraging calorimetry and in-situ process analysis. In order to provide the best possible customer service, Lubrizol redefined traditional process development to reduce the time and complexity of new product development, and scale-up/scale-down optimization.
During this presentation, Glenn Cormack discusses the methodology that Lubrizol used to successfully increase the speed to market, foster collaboration, and enhance the productivity of their R&D Departments. Additionally, there is a review of the initial technical challenges that companies may face and best practices for overcoming potential hurdles.
The presentation concludes with an overview of how companies can develop, pilot and successfully implement in-situ FTIR on a production scale. The model development and scale-up process are demonstrated using a case study from Lubrizol’s facility in Bayport, Texas.
