About the Project
Johnson Matthey [JM] makes formulated products, catalysing the net zero
transition. These are heavily characterised and tested during product development
and manufacturing. The move towards better process efficiency, product control and
increasing digitisation of manufacturing plant leads inexorably to a need for
improved on-line measurement, and real time process modelling. However, analytics
of these data is insufficient to fully optimize the processes. The focus of this
project is to integrate available physical models with available process data to
create real time inverse models (i.e. digital twins) that are suitable for
advanced process control needs of JM, with a focus on the crystallisation of
existing products. The EngD student will work as an integral part of the process
measurement and control group enabling the digitisation drive across JM
manufacturing. The EngD researcher will play a key role within this team; the role
will primarily be modelling focused but will require the development of a deep
understanding of instrument design and practical experimental skills. The
researcher will obtain training and practice in a wide range of skills critical to
the future “digital chemical engineer” in an exciting and growing group, and an
opportunity to work with a world leading formulation business and gain a unique
range of mathematical, engineering and digital skills.
