The HAS mini-plant consists of a pilot plant and a laboratory for potent compounds. It is located in the existing 200,000sf Building; the area impacted by the project, 2500sf. The building is H-2 occupancy.
The new pilot plant includes:

• Three glass-lined reactor systems
• Dispensing glovebox
• Filter dryer system with glovebox
• Isolation hoods
• Vacuum systems
• SYLTHERM XLT heat transfer systems
• Scrubber system
• Waste handling systems

IPS designed the 3D environment: architectural, structural, vessels and equipment. Design reviews were done with the client at an early stage to verify the design and obtain input. Piping plans, isometrics, and a full material take-off were developed from the model. Existing lines, floors wall and HVAC components were built into the model to avoid soft and hard interferences.

• Minimized shutdown
• Conducted prototyping of isolators
• Conducted model reviews with operations
