PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Intensified-by-Design (IbD) Project has created a holistic platform for facilitating process intensification design and optimization in processes in which solids are an intrinsic part. The project has developed and upgraded methods for the handling of solids in continuous production units based, on the one hand, in the intensification of currently existing processes and, on the other hand, through completely new approaches to the processing of solids. IbD is the new paradigm in the intensification of processes based on statistical, analytical and risk management methodologies in the design, development and manufacturing of high quality safe and tailored chemicals, pharmaceuticals, minerals, ceramics, etc. under intensified processes.

OBJECTIVES

IbD will make a landmark advance in bridging the technological and knowledge gaps in the area of Process Intensification in processes involving solids. It will create a comprehensive devices- and processes design-platform for the industrial realisation of Process Intensification involving solids handling. I will bring to the industry a ergonomic, flexible, scalable IbD platform that performs fast reiterations of processes and device designs.

INNOVATION

No comprehensive software is currently available for assisting the process engineers to design solutions based on Process Intensification. Therefore, the IbD Platform will be a disruptive tool for widely fostering PI beyond the scope of the IbD Project. The Platform will have a built-in TRIZ module to assist the practitioners to ideate innovative solutions which have not been created yet.

H2020 - SPIRE

Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU R&D programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020). It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market. IbD is funded under SPIRE-8-2015- Solids handling for intensified process technology. A.SPIRE is an international non-profit association formed to represent the private sector as a partner in the Sustainable Process Industry through Resource and Energy Efficiency (SPIRE) Public-Private Partnership (PPP) launched as part of the Horizon2020 framework programme. This new association represents more than 114 industrial and research process industry stakeholders from over a dozen countries spread throughout Europe. IbD - Intensified by Design - is in line with the SPIRE roadmap and delivers a short to medium term impact in the process control and process optimisation technologies for a resource and energy efficient process industry
