Abstract
Chemical manufacturers have an opportunity to make a step change by capitalizing on the synergies between chemical process intensification and plant modularization, but businesses are hesitant to depart from conventional methods of plant design and co
Key Findings

As Figure 1 shows, for Case Study 1, the MCPI plant’s spatial volume was one 250th of a comparable conventional plant (FR-373, p. 17).

Figure 2 captures how MCPI shortened project duration by 70% in Case Study 1 (FR-373, p. 18).

As this portion of Table 3 shows, on Case Study 1 the project CAPEX was reduced by 87% (FR-373, p. 19).
