IntroductiontoModularization
Historic View of Modularization
Our View of Modularization
Shorter Schedule 6-12+ Months Shorter than Conventional Methods Cost and Schedule Certainty Proven Designs ModularAdvantages Standardized, Pre-Engineered Modular Solutions Ability to Deliver Complete Products and Services Clean Manufacturing Environment 75-80% of Project in Supplier s Factory Higher Safety and Less Waste High Quality Design and Fabrication Buildings and Skids are Manufactured Not Constructed Personnel Trained on a Large Number of Highly Technical Projects Responsibility from Design Through Startup & Testing

Module Manufacturing Lean assembly line type production OUT IN
Complete Filling Line Integrated in Modules
Complete Unit Operation In one Vertical Module: IBC Hoist/Blender, Granulator, FBD and Mill/Sieve with support Areas Allows for Standardization, Pre-Testing, Schedule Reduction 3D Model
Lessons Learned and Further Development
ModularConstruction Benchmark 70% of all modular projects completed with 3% or less cost variance 90% less than 10% 4 times better than Industry Best Practice 80% of all modular projects completed within 2 months of initially contracted schedule 5 times better than Industry Best Practice
LessonsLearned Team Building and Design Alignment Critical Significant Changes can be Incorporated Module Manufacturing a Well-Oiled Machine Interaction With Process Equipment Suppliers can be Improved Site Assembly and Start-Up can be Improved
Further Development Improve Project & Site Management, Interaction With Equipment Suppliers Lean Approach to Design and Manufacturing Refining the Modular Concept Standardization Modular Unit Operations Wider Range of Modular Solutions
Developing the Modular Concept
Modularization Considerations Process Functions Design to minimize work on site Phasing Transportation Standardization
Modularization -Example 1. Each system will be analyzed and the process functions modularized 2. Modularized functions displayed in adjacency diagram Process modules and support modules creates a functional layout Mixing Module Separation Module Phasing Scope 3. Adjacency diagram developed to an architectural layout. Grid system to support both modular and conventional building One building module can consist of several process modules Process modules can easily be changed to other technology or unit operation in future Construction can be phased in time to match increased capacity requirements
Types of Modules Modular Facility as free-standing building façade and roofing including Foundation typically a concrete slab with piers to create space for drain/waste pipes etc. Can placed on top of or next to an existing building Indoor module for placement in existing building Indoor modules to be placed on concrete slab Pipe racks on top of or below modules Piers to create space for drains, pipe racks etc HVAC to be placed on top of or beside modules Process skids and other pre-assemblies
Solutions for Manufacturing ofthe Future Design and Build Standardized, Pre-engineered Modular Solutions that can be Configured, Combined and Repeated for Future Use Create Products and Solutions that can be Rapidly Configured and Deployed Globally Move from Customization to Configuration Minimize Cost by Minimizing Need for Re-engineering Maximize Flexibility by Allowing for Configuration
