Competition from emerging and developing countries, challenges
related to energy and water, the continuing increase in the global
population and the obligation to be sustainable are all impacting
developed countries such as the United States, France, etc.
Manufacturing has been almost totally neglected by these developed
countries and thus there is a strong need to review R&D and the
development and industrialization processes. This is a prerequisite
for maintaining and improving welfare and quality of
life. The industrialization process can be defined as
the process of converting research or laboratory experiments into a
physical tool capable of producing a product of value for customers
of specified markets. Such a process implies knowledge of BAT (best
available techniques) in chemical engineering, plant design,
production competitiveness, the proper utilization of tools
(toolbox concept) such as value assessment, value engineering,
eco-design, LCA (lifecycle analysis), process simulation, modeling,
innovation and appropriate metrics usage. These are mandatory
to ensure commercial success and covered by the authors of this
book.
