At LIGHTNIN, we rec- ognized this and have increased the level of process support available to our customers. Evaluation and resolution of our customer’s mixing issues has been a core strength for many years at LIGHTNIN.You can leverage the resources and knowledge base of LIGHTNIN by optimizing your mixing processes and solving any mixing problems. LIGHTNIN’s Process Technology Lab enables this support to be efficiently executed to minimize your costs. LIGHTNIN will evaluate your existing mixer design and process goals to determine opportunities for improvement. LIGHTNIN will team with your techni- cal group to reduce the time and expense for devel- oping new mixing applications. LIGHTNIN can assist in the specification of mixer design, tank internals, feed stream locations and product draw-off position to optimize your operation. LIGHTNIN has extensive experience in scaling up lab designs and achieving guaranteed full-scale performance.LIGHTNIN’s consulting work starts with a discus-sion of your needs and process information. Then a proposal is created to define the project scope, responsibilities, deliverables, cost and schedule. A path forward is then concisely and clearly written, and agreed to by both parties. Bi-directional confidentiality agreements are frequently a necessary and common course for doing business.
