Abstract
Microchannel technology offers the promise of practical process intensification technology for the chemical industry. Capitalizing on the microchannel technology advantage requires demonstrating scalable technology that produces tens to hundreds of tons of product per annum. The transition from lab-scale to industrial-scale chemical processing is described. Specifically, the importance of mass production manufacturing methods, flow distribution, and plant integration are discussed in the context of a case study for a commercial-scale hydrogen generation plant based on microchannel technology. Significant advancements have been made to develop and scale-up microchannel technology, including:
