“…One approach to meet these challenges successfully and to ensure long-term business success is the establishment of adaptable, small-scale, modular production concepts that combine the flexibility and versatility of a discontinuous multi-product asset with the efficiency and reproducibility of a continuous single-product plant [2,4,5]. The modular design enables a reduction in time-to-market and controlled capacity adjustment along with simple and fast plant maintenance [6,7]. Further positive aspects are the decentralized production close to the customer, short retooling times in case of a product change and lower investment costs due to the recycling of modules [4,[8][9][10].…”

Increasing global competition, volatile markets and the demand for individual products challenge companies in almost all business sectors and require innovative solutions. In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, these include modular design, the integration of several unit operations in one apparatus and the development of small-scale, versatile multipurpose plants. An example for such a modular, integrated and small-scale system is the belt crystallizer. This device combines the process steps cooling crystallization, solid-liquid separation and contact drying in a single plant. The basis of the apparatus is a belt filter in which the vacuum trays below the filter medium are replaced by temperature control and filtration units. Due to identical dimensions, it is possible to arrange the individual functional units in any order, which in turn allows a high degree of flexibility and rapid adaptation to customer requirements. Within the scope of the publication, the commissioning of the belt crystallizer takes place. First of all, the general functionality of the plant concept is demonstrated using sucrose as model system. Further experiments show that the particle size and the distribution width of the manufactured crystals can be specifically influenced by the selected process parameters, e.g., temperature profile during cooling and residence time.

“…Vereint man die beiden vorgelagerten Transformationsstufen und ergänzt sie um intelligente, dezentrale Steuerungs‐ und Fördertechnikeinheiten, entsteht in der vierten Transformationsstufe eine containerbasierte autonome, selbststeuernde Fabrik 8. Analog zur diskreten Fertigung wird somit das Konzept der Smart Factory, in der autonom die Auftragsreihenfolgeplanung und deren Optimierung nach Prioritäten wie z.…”

“…Die modulare Bauweise sieht vor, dass die Kapazität der Produktionsanlage durch Parallelschaltung von Modulen verändert wird (Numbering‐up). Dies hat zur Folge, dass die aufwendigen Validierungsphasen der unterschiedlichen Apparatedimensionen von Labor, Technikum, Pilot‐Anlage und Produktionsanlage entfallen und die Planungszeit signifikant beschleunigt werden kann 8.…”

Seit einigen Jahren begegnet die Prozessindustrie den Herausforderungen der Märkte durch modulare Produktions-und Logistikkonzepte. Der vorliegende Beitrag stellt diesen Entwicklungsprozess in Form eines vierstufigen Transformationsmodells dar. Es wird gezeigt, dass der Weg hin zu modularen Produktionsumgebungen schrittweise erfolgen kann. Das Motto lautet ,,Evolution statt Revolution''. Es wird zunächst ein Ü berblick über den Stand der Technik modularisierter Produktions-und Logistiksysteme gegeben. Darauf aufbauend beschreibt und klassifiziert der Beitrag die vier unterschiedlichen Stufen der Modularisierung.

From Lab to Pilot Scale: Commissioning of an Integrated Device for the Generation of Crystals

et al. 2023

Fast time-to-market, increased efficiency, and flexibility of production processes are major motivators for the development of integrated, continuous apparatuses with short changeover times. Following this trend, the modular belt crystallizer was developed and characterized in lab scale with the model system sucrose-water. Based on the promising results, the plant concept was upscaled and commissioned in industrial environment. The results are presented within the scope of this work. Starting from small seed crystals in solution, it was possible to grow, separate, and dry product particles. Further, the conducted experiments demonstrated that it is feasible to transfer the results from laboratory to pilot scale, which in turn enables accelerated process design as well as development.
