Introducing the…AIChE Process Development Division Bob Duggal Ethyl Corporation
Agenda • Background & History • Structure and Current Leadership • Recent Programs & Activities, Future Programs • Benefits to Division Members • How to Get Involved • Q&A, Remarks
Effective Process Development • New product or process ideas • Superior process research and innovation • Detailed pilot plant scale-up • Thorough technology transfer • Quality manufacturing leading to successful commercialization and business results
Background & History… • Pilot Plants Area 12A started in 1984 within the “Engineering Division” • Forum for pilot plant engineers & managers • Industrial focus with some academic participation • Programmed 1-2 sessions in AIChE National Meetings • Was the most active group within Engineering • In mid-1990’s, scope broadened to other areas • Benchmarking, networking, industry-university collaborations, etc. • Need for broader forum on industrial process development emerged • High level of interest from industrial participants at AIChE National Meetings
…Background & History • Expansion of Pilot Plants Area initiated in 1996-1997 by a core group • Proposed name change of “Engineering Division” to “Process Development Division” • Proposed new structure covering key elements of process development • 12A Process Research & Innovation • 12B Pilot Plants • 12C Technology Transfer • 12D Manufacturing • Permanent Division Status granted by AIChE CTOC in 2002
Process Development DivisionVision and Goals Our vision is to provide leadership in the development of the next-generation technologies for process development • Promote programming and presentations of process development topics at the Spring and Annual Meetings of the Institute, and at the Process Development Symposium • Promote the interchange of ideas, concepts and history of process development in various aspects, from theory to hardware • Provide a continuous forum for communication, sharing ideas, learning new concepts and benchmarking • Promote networking and communication among those involved in process development • Promote the teaching of process development, thereby improving interactions between industry and academia

Area 12A:Process Research & InnovationMission and Goals • Foster process innovation by applying Chemical Engineering principles to the synthesis of novel operations for new product manufacture and step changes in existing technology. • The PR&I area will be a meeting ground for diverse academic and industrial practitioners of Process Innovation. • Its programming and activities will explore the components of successful process innovation, and distribute this shared knowledge to the Institute membership.
Area 12A:Pilot PlantsMission and Goals The Pilot Plant Area is a forum for active interchange of ideas and for the continual improvement of Pilot Plant contributions to quality research and effective scale-up. AIChE programming, benchmarking, operation reviews, and extensive networking form the backbone of the Area activities.
Area 12C:Technology TransferMission and Goals • Provide a forum to share and build on technology transfer (TT) principles and experiences of professional colleagues from different disciplines. • Generate ideas to develop TT work processes aimed at extracting value from internal and external technology for speedy and cost effective commercialization of new processes and products.
Area 12D:ManufacturingMission and Goals • Provide programming to enhance the professional development of AIChE members and industry colleagues who affect manufacturing process improvements. • Expand in scope to include other aspects of manufacturing technology and secure active participation from a greater breadth of the ChE population. Maintain strong ties with internal and external groups.
