Overview of the Catalyst Cost Estimation Tool—Video Text Version

This is the text version for the Overview of the Catalyst Cost Estimation Tool video.

Catalyst cost can be a major contributor to the commercialization risk of biomass conversion technologies.

The Catalyst Cost Estimation Tool aims to mitigate commercialization risk and empower researchers to make more informed R&D decisions by estimating the cost of producing pre-commercial catalysts at industrially relevant scales.

You can customize the estimate to your synthesis or select from one of our included process templates.

Raw materials costs can be extrapolated from laboratory-scale pricing or input from a bulk quote generating tailored outputs and powerful visualizations.

The Catalyst Cost Estimation Tool will be free and publicly available in the fall of 2018.
