scaled-down to the pilot plant level
“pilot plants” being defined here as scaled-down continuous
systems producing produce commercially relevant products and information.
Pilot plants are justified on the basis of minimizing technical, economic, marketing, and production risks, and opening opportunities for more revenue and profitability. These uses and the need for material quantities for market testing can
make pilot plants in particular quite sizeable. Of course, these
traditionally-sized pilot plants are costly to construct and operate. There is thus a drive to obtain more and better information at the laboratory scale: to make pilot
plants smaller, more efficient, and of higher value, and even bypass piloting by more extensive use of modeling and simulation scale-up techniques.
