Reimagining Industrial Spaces

. by Colby Kaimanu Tinsley

Chemical engineers often work in remote and uninspiring business and industrial parks, but some architects and designers are re-imagining how these spaces can actually contribute to job satisfaction.

Decarbonizing Light Olefin Production Using Advanced Electromagnetic Reactors

The goal of this project is to scale-up current electromagnetic (EM) reactor technology from its current TRL 4 stage to a pre-commercially relevant TRL 5-6, and to demonstrate the production of light olefins from disadvantaged carbon feedstocks (waste plastics) using pre-commercial EM (microwave and RF induction) powered reactors at relevant scales (≥100 kg/day).

Accelerated Modular Process Development (AMPD)

Using RAPID’s well-proven approach to setting and tracking project tasks and milestones, the team will create and test a standardized framework and modular processing testbed/Center Of Excellence (COE) for accelerated development of processes to manufacture active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) specialty chemical precursors. The project will immediately impact coronavirus response through creation and testing of a new accelerated methodology and modular processing COE for development of processes to manufacture API specialty chemical precursors.
