Summary
Fifty percent of all commercial scale process implementations fail. This course will address critical success factors for process innovation and scale-up from idea to commercial scale start-up. From innovation stage,discovery, concept, feasibility, development, detailed design through to construction, procurement, and start-up. Specific attention is paid to design, modelling and experimentation. The course consists of interactive lectures, discussions and workshops applied to real industrial cases.

Optional Follow-up Session
The aim of this half-day follow-up session on January 14th is to enhance knowledge obtained by course participants in the main course advanced industrial process and unit operations scale-up. This follow-up session highlights all of the key subjects, addresses questions, and includes a workshop where participants share their experiences of the knowledge in practice. This session is only available and suitable for participants, who took the main course.
