Process intensification

Process intensification involves radically innovative principles in process and equipment design. They must bring a benefit (of more than a factor of 2) to the whole, which includes process and production line efficiency, investment and operating costs, quality, waste reduction, process safety, etc.). (Definition from the European roadmap for Process Intensification).

Nouvelle chimie intensifiée; novel process windows

Intensification of chemical processes, using process operating conditions that are far removed from conventional practices (very high temperatures, very high pressures, very high concentrations in the absence of solvents, explosive conditions...) to greatly improve synthetic chemistry on laboratory and production scales. Such severe conditions can be safely achieved in microstructured...
