Tutorial Workshop on "Continuous Process Intensification"

3-5 April 2026, IIT Bombay

Timing: 2PM (3 April) to 2PM (5th April)

Venue: Lecure Hall Complex, IIT Bombay

Instructor: Prof. Anil Kumar, IIT Bombay

This Tutorial workshop, first of its kind, will provide the opportunity to all the chemical manufacturer and the students of chemistry and chemical engineering to learn theory and practices of Continuous Process Intensification.  

This will be the one stop solution to interact with various practitioners and tool suppliers (reactors, pumps, PAT and more) and see the tools in action.

The tutorial workshop will focus on the theory and practice of the above four platforms

Theory will focus on following topics:

1.        What is Continuous Process Intensification (CPI)

2.        Applications of CPI in Indian and Foreign Chemical Industries

3.        How to think and start experiments in continuous flow using easily accessible tools in lab.

4.        Commercial reactors, pumps and tools for successful continuous flow setup

5.        How to calculate pressure, flow rate, flow accuracy, min and max flow for a given syringe pump 

6.        How to convert batch process to flow including multistep telescoping.

7.        How to handle solids in feed as well as production (including nanoparticles) in flow.

8.        Continuous Crystallization from lab to production

9.        Photo Flow Processes

10.    Introduction and importance of Electro Organic Synthesis

11.     How to start lab experiments in electro organic synthesis using easily available tools from lab to production.

12.    Successful Industrial Processes via Electro Organic Processes

13.    Introduction and importance of Mechano Organic Synthesis

14.    How to start lab experiments in Mechano organic synthesis using easily available tools from lab to production.

15.    Successful Industrial Production via Mechano Organic Processes

Demo will focus on:

1.        Various tools for Continuous Process Intensification (lab to production)

2.        High throughput homogeneous reactions

3.        High Throughput catalyst screening

4.        Biphasic and Multiphasic reactions setup
