High throughput experimentation, experimental design and collaboration between different groups are important tools for achieving the desired goal more rapidly. At an early stage in the R&D project, it is important to consider the manufacturing of the new product and such questions as whether it will be possible to manufacture the new catalyst in existing facilities, whether the manufacturing conditions used in the laboratory are safe for large-scale production or special safety precautions might be necessary and whether you will be able to manufacture this catalyst yourselves, should you invest in manufacturing capability, or should you deploy a toll manufacturer? Early consideration of commercial-scale manufacturing results in shorter product development times and a faster time to market.
Catalyst Intelligence has several experts who have worked as R&D manager at major catalyst companies. Since 2016 we have assisted several catalyst / chemicals companies with R&D projects. Sometimes we work together with well-known global consulting companies to develop a long-term innovation strategy for a large corporation, whereas in other projects we are actively involved in catalyst development and qualifying raw materials and manufacturing routes for immediate deployment. Our specialists bring together many years of experience in the industry and we continue to work with several universities and catalyst laboratories. Whatever your catalyst R&D question is, we can find you collaboration partners in universities or industry to ensure more rapid progress at lower cost. And we can provide manufacturing support, by either introducing new technologies or finding a toll manufacturing partner. Efficient R&D projects help you gain a sustainable, competitive advantage.
