Quick Thinking

Why is it that the introduction of innovative process technologies appears to be so slow in the process industries?

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.
