Why is it that the introduction of innovative process technologies appears to be so slow in the process industries? For example, the benefits of implementing flow chemistry at smaller commercial scales have been discussed for over a decade, and yet the reality is that new products continue to be realised through batch processes. Economies of scale and the two-thirds rule dominate the approach to large-volume, commodity chemicals, leading to highly centralised production, reliance on long-established process routes, and incremental improvements.
