PI-Nordic - A strategic research and innovation agenda for process intensification and innovation in process industries
- 2015
-
Rapport (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- A continued and sustainable growth in the Process Industry sector remains essential for Sweden’s economy. The strategic research agenda PI-Nordic describes a vison and way forward for the development and implementation of Process Intensification (PI) as an essential element for promoting this development. The agenda covers the chemical, water, forest, food, drug and mining industries, the equipment manufacturers and suppliers, the build-up of knowledge and expertise in academia and research institutes, and the essential role of funding bodies.

- Solid supported evaporation (SSE) is a simple, nonselective method for isolating nonvolatile compounds from a solution. The solution is put in contact with porous polymer beads onto which the compound deposits upon evaporation of the solvent. This brings some advantages over direct evaporation to dryness in terms of safety, thermal decomposition, and solid handling, as the loaded beads form a free flowing granular material that is easily recovered. In this paper, SSE in a semicontinuous operating mode is investigated where the solution is continuously fed to (respectively sprayed over) an agitated bed of dry beads put under vacuum. It is found that under conditions where the solvent evaporation fate is high with respect to the feed rate, high bead loadings can be achieved before extensive sticking of beads and compound to the vessel walls occurs. The type of compound and solvent had little influence on the process performance, and, in cases where this was explored, the bead loading was found to be homogeneous. Based on a balance equation for the solvent fed to the system, a model is developed that results in a simple scale up criterion. The latter was successfully applied for transferring SSE from lab to the kilo lab scale.

- Solid supported evaporation (SSE) is a simple method to isolate dissolved compounds as a solid material. The solution is put in contact with granular porous polymer beads onto which the compounds deposit upon evaporation of the solvent. This brings some advantages over direct evaporation to dryness in terms of safety and handling of the solids. In this paper, SSE in batch mode is explored where the solution is added to the polymer beads at once, i.e. opposite to the semicontinuous mode where the solution is sprayed over a bed of beads. A number of compounds varying widely in their physical and chemical properties is studied. It is found that all compounds could be loaded onto the beads; however, the loading capacity depends on the properties of the compound and in general was lower than in the semicontinuous operating mode studied in an accompanying paper. For highly soluble compounds, higher loadings could be achieved when solvent evaporation was slow. In cases where tested, bead loading was found to be homogeneous within a batch. Recovery of compound from loaded beads was achieved by dispersing the beads in a solvent and washing of the filter cake after filtration. A relatively large amount of solvent is required to achieve full recovery.
