Partitioning in Modular Systems
Breaking down a plant into distinct, standardized systems or units, where processes like distillation, heat exchange, and chemical reactions are treated as individual building blocks, is the norm in the design and construction of chemical plants. Extending this norm to incorporate individually more complex units provides a foundational framework for modularization. In traditional chemical plant, Continue reading

The Transformative Potential of Modularization
Imagine being a car manufacturer tasked with building a single car. You start by sourcing every piece of equipment and raw material needed, fabricating the parts, piecing them together, and then assemble the entire vehicle. Once completed, you begin the same laborious process all over again for the next car – an inefficient, painstaking cycle, Continue reading

Imperatives for Africa’s Industrialization
The promise of industrialization in Africa has been anticipated for far too long. Yet, I often wonder: how do we make it a reality? Even the simplest manufacturing endeavors remain overwhelmingly challenging for the continent. We have yet to master the ability—or crack the code—for basic chemical and materials manufacturing, or even the processing of Continue reading
