Abstract :
The distance from academic research output to industrial implementation is often daunting, costly, and delays the return on research investment for industrial sponsors. Operational performance monitoring techniques, infrastructure and tools are of pivotal importance to efficient and effective process engineering plants, but new research output typically requires extensive development before deployment. Implementation, in terms of leading technology stacks, of research output can bridge part of the distance between research and deployment. This paper considers a research & development strategy that accelerates technology transfer by implementation of research output as concept demonstrators for operational performance monitoring in process plants.
