Market transformation implementation

In the aftermath of the 1973 oil crisis, independently from market environment, MTO route has always attracted a lot of attention and was poised as a potential way for on-purpose catalytic conversion of non-oil-based feedstocks or intermediates. One could hardly call methanol transformation to olefins a new technology. Since the early 1980s, MTO technology has been considered to be the second best among the emerging solutions. Nobody knows whether the oil had been too accessible or the lack of industrial experience has delayed a sustainable implementation of the process for several decades. 

Quality control at every step of the manufacturing chain must be adapted to the needs of a growing market where products must be manufactured in a fast and robust manner. The concept of global quality control by assessing quality at every step of the production chain was introduced by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which launched the process analytical technology (PAT) initiative to transform approaches to quality assurance in every step of the process [1]. This initiative encourages the implementation of three basic ideas [2] ...
