From Data to Decisions: IQ Session at IFPAC

For the fifth year, IQ is sponsoring a session at IFPAC 2016.

Session Description

By employing sensors and harnessing the data they provide, one can effectively take control of a chemical, biological or drug product process.  As sensor technology improves and as their costs decline multiple sensors are becoming the norm.  When this data rich environment is combined with the correct analysis tools complexity and uncertainty of a process can be reduced.  The industry is embracing more precise controls and is becoming more adept at making decisions about a process that leads to a reduced cost, increase yields and a more robust, stable process.  We would like to share examples where decisions were made based on analytics and demonstrate the outcome.

The program includes the following:

Robust Optimization, Simulation, Scale Up and Effective Use of Design Space (60)
