18.00 for a 18.30 start. Networking and wine at the end of the lecture.
An evening lecture given by Dr Gareth Jenkins (CEO, Britest Limited). There is much talk across manufacturing industries about an emerging fourth industrial revolution to harness the potential of automation, on-line data capture and cyber-physical systems to create 鈥楽mart Factories鈥�. How might this impact the chemicals industry? What would be needed to gain competitive advantage?
Britest has been at the forefront of process understanding and whole process design for over 15 years. We help manufacturers to map out their current manufacturing process understanding and what knowledge gaps there may be. The focus is always on addressing those gaps that will significantly improve the overall process from an economic, sustainability or commercial perspective. The Britest approach ensures different disciplines share a common understanding of the process and the potential for improvements within in the business constraints. This allows for better and richer discussions when considering process changes, including investments in new technology or other innovations emerging through Industry 4.0.
Recent developments in process modelling are improving our abilities to take a whole process approach to developing and improving chemical manufacturing processes and this talk will outline advances in this field and how this may help to shape the future of chemicals manufacture.
Dr Gareth Jenkins is the Chief Executive Officer for Britest Limited, a global leader in the development of innovative process design solutions for the chemical processing sector. He was previously the Chief Operating Officer for AM Technology, a chemistry engineering company developing innovative flow reactors. Throughout his career he has focused on strategic research and business development roles. He gained his PhD at Imperial College London in Organic 九州影院 and has an MBA in Entrepreneurship from Manchester Business School. He is currently the Chairman of the 九州影院 Speciality Chemicals Sector.
