process intensification, modularity, and automation.
Developing more secure supply chains which can respond with agility to disruption.At a manufacturing level they can deliver more reliable quality with lower complexity and cost, while driving operations significantly closer to net-zero….
However, on the day we consciously parked any “solution mode” and the morning was spent discussing barriers: -.see what we see?”.These can broadly be clustered as follows:.
The perceived immaturity of the state-of-the-art.There is a belief that the technology involved in intensified chemistry is not very mature and therefore carries substantial risk.
Some of the small-scale hardware has not been fully industrialised, the developing data collection, process and quality control approaches have not been fully tested with regulatory authorities..
Complicated supply chain., has been created by Bryden Wood and Cast with the Mayor of London for housing and we see examples from outside the industry such as the Ikea 3D Kitchen Planner..
These digital tools vastly increase both the speed with which designers progress from data to the digital model and the number of options and permutations that can be considered when it comes to reconciling specific requirements and performance criteria.A school, for example, can be configured in just 15 minutes.. Key insight.
We will need more.convincing mechanisms to ensure that what was designed is what is built..
