Our expert team uses every professional approved license to perform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. We use the software internally as a development tool while helping our clients develop new processes and products. We also provide CFD services as a specialized expertise to help other teams gain insights into design and operations variables that otherwise might not be possible.
CFD studies the dynamics of things that flow. CFD is a very sophisticated data analysis technique. It not only predicts fluid flow behavior, but also the transfer of heat, mass, phase change, chemical reaction, mechanical movement, and stress or deformation of related solid structures. There are many devices and systems that are very difficult to prototype. Because CFD is a tool used for predicting what will happen under a given set of circumstances, it can answer many questions very quickly. In a short time, predictions on how your design will perform under many variations can be studied until an optimal result is achieved. All of this is done before physical prototyping and testing.
The foresight you gain from CFD helps you to design better and faster which leads to shorter design cycles. Time and money are saved. Products get to market faster. Equipment improvements are built and installed with minimal downtime. CFD is a tool for compressing the design and development cycle.

We utilize a proprietary quality improvement tool that has become a staple or mainstream technique in preventing defects, enhancing safety, and increasing customer satisfaction. The technique, designed to identify and prevent product and process failures before they happen. It is a systematic approach that can be used to improve the quality of product designs and improve manufacturing processes.
We also use a unique operability study method for a structured examination to identify all possible deviations from the way in which a design is expected to work and to identify all the hazards associated with these deviations. Where deviations arise that result in hazards then actions are generated which require our design engineers to review and suggest solutions to either remove the hazard or reduce its risk to an acceptable level. We have significant experience in leading and participating in these special studies for various types of manufacturing processes. We can organize and lead a specific study or participate in an existing study as an outside expert with significant operations experience.
In any manufacturing process, the entire process is well-diagramed, monitored, and controlled. All process data is tracked and recorded as the process flows from one unit operation to the next. This structured, organized approach is necessary to ensure product quality and maximize process throughput and the overall process efficiency.

Due diligence is an investigative process for validating contract representations made by one party to another. Due diligence is typically performed before two companies enter into a significant commercial agreement. A detailed due diligence process typically begins after initial interest between the parties has been established but prior to signing binding contracts (other than confidentiality agreements).
We offer due diligence services to our clients, usually providing an unbiased assessment of a company’s technical claims, development plans, scalability. We will perform a Gap Analysis during this process to identify critical areas or challenges facing the commercialization of the technology. We have provided this service to investors preparing for an investment and also for companies looking to provide a third party assessment to potential investors proactively. We also provide technical expert legal testimony in litigation cases involving chemical or metallurgical processing technologies.
Whenever a client is reluctant to engage in due diligence because of a fear of “cross-contamination” occurring. To avoid cross-contamination, a third party is often brought in to perform the due diligence and act as a “firewall” between the two companies. We are able to efficiently, quickly, and thoroughly assess the capabilities of the smaller company and provide a thorough report to our client.

Lyophilization, or freeze drying, is a means of drying, achieved by freezing a wet substance and causing the ice (or solid for non-aqueous applications) to sublime directly to vapor by exposing it to a low partial pressure of vapor.

Lyophilization, or freeze drying, is a means of drying, achieved by freezing a wet substance and causing the ice (or solid for non-aqueous applications) to sublime directly to vapor by exposing it to a low partial pressure of vapor. Biological materials often must be dried to stabilize them for storage or distribution. Drying always causes some loss of activity or other damage. Lyophilization is a method of drying that significantly reduces such damage.
Because lyophilization can be the most complex and expensive form of drying, its use is usually restricted to delicate, heat-sensitive materials of high value. Substances that are not damaged by freezing can usually be lyophilized so that refrigerated storage is unnecessary. Many microorganisms and proteins survive lyophilization well, and it is a favored method of drying vaccines, pharmaceuticals, blood fractions, and diagnostics. Some specialized food products are also lyophilized. They rehydrate easily and quickly because of the porous structure left after the ice has sublimed. Occasionally materials are lyophilized to achieve a porous, friable structure rather than for preservation. Lyophilizers are sometimes used for the proper concentration assembly of these many delicate materials
