  2. 1. Managing open innovation in process industries

    Author : David Rönnberg Sjödin; Martin Sköld; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Open Innovation; Collaborative Development; Process Industries; Buyer-Supplier Relationships; Process Equipment; Lifecycle Stages; Stage-Gate; Entreprenörskap och innovation; Entrepreneurship and Innovation;

    Abstract : The concept of open innovation has received increased attention among practitioners as well as in academia in recent years. It provides a conceptual platform for understanding how external sources of knowledge drive internal growth. READ MORE

  4. 2. Biomass conversion through syngas-based biorefineries : thermochemical process integration opportunities

    Author : Katarina Åberg; Anders Nordin; Linda Pommer; Erik Dahlquist; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biomass; biorefinery; thermochemical conversion; torrefaction; slow pyrolysis; gasification; process integration; carbon negativity;

    Abstract : The replacement of fossil resources through renewable alternatives is one way to mitigate global climate change. Biomass is the only renewable source of carbon available for replacing oil as a refining feedstock. Therefore, it needs to be utilized not just as a fuel but for both biochemical and thermochemical conversion through biorefining. READ MORE

  5. 3. Sales and operations planning based on a modularized view of supply chains : Supporting process industries and discrete manufacturing industries

    Author : Sayeh Noroozi; Joakim Wikner; Ou Tang; Patrik Jonsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sales and operations planning; Decoupling point; Performance measure; Process industry; Discrete manufacturing industry;

    Abstract : The purpose of this dissertation is to propose a framework for sales and operations planning (S&OP), which is based on a modularized view of supply chains. The framework should support both process industries and discrete manufacturing industries in their quest for performance. READ MORE

  6. 4. Management of technology in the process industries:  Matching market and machine

    Author : Peter Samuelsson; Pär Jönsson; Rob Boom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; process industries; manufacturing; innovation; configuration; strategizing; capability; configuration modelling; process industries; production system; physical modelling; AOD; converter geometry; injection; mixing times; electric arc furnace; EAF; post-combustion; high-impedance; network disturbances; operational results; Metallurgical process science; Metallurgisk processvetenskap;

    Abstract : The process industries span multiple industrial sectors and constitute a substantial part of the entire manufacturing industry. Since companies belonging to this family of industries are often very asset intensive, their ability to respond to changes is often limited in the short term. READ MORE

  7. 5. Contributions to the Use of Statistical Methods for Improving Continuous Production

    Author : Francesca Capaci; Erik Vanhatalo; Bjarne Bergquist; Murat Kulahci; Johan Carlson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process industry; Continuous process; Statistical process control; Design of experiments; Process improvements; Simulation tool; Engineering process control; Kvalitetsteknik; Quality Technology Management;

    Abstract : Complexity of production processes, high computing capabilities, and massive datasets characterize today’s manufacturing environments, such as those of continuous andbatch production industries. Continuous production has spread gradually acrossdifferent industries, covering a significant part of today’s production. READ MORE
