You understand your technology, but you need a clear, professional representation of your process and a high-level mass balance to align your team, communicate with investors, and serve as the foundation for future engineering work. Hand-drawn sketches and PowerPoint boxes aren’t cutting it anymore.
We build you a professional Block Flow Diagram (BFD) with accompanying stream table that captures your process in just the right amount of detail. This becomes your reference document for the next 12-18 mos.
Deep-dive discussion with our process engineer to understand your technology, unit operations, and material flows
Mass balance table showing flows and compositions for all major input, output, intermediary streams
Design intent clearly stated, and assumptions noted, on the drawing
Opportunity to provide feedback and ensure deliverable meets your needs
We will need 4-8 hours of time from your technology expert to introduce your process and answer questions. We will ask you to define the performance and chemistry of any specialized process blocks.
SPECIFICATIONS
Scope & limitations: All Launch deliverables are conceptual-level engineering suitable for study purposes, strategic planning, and investor communications. Work is not for construction, regulatory submission, or detailed design.
Delivery: Standard delivery is 2 weeks from the project initiation meeting. Project initiation date is subject to availability and will be communicated prior to confirming the engagement. Timeline begins when client provides all required inputs (specified per service) and the initiation meeting is held. One round of revisions included based on clarifications or corrections; scope changes constitute new work. All work is executed and delivered remotely.
Client responsibilities: Client must provide: (1) technical information about their process/technology, (2) available data, flow rates, or ranges, (3) designated point of contact for technical questions, (4) timely feedback on drafts (48-hour response time required to maintain schedule).
Intellectual property: All client technology and information remains client property. Lydium grants client full license to use deliverables for any business purpose. Lydium retains the right to use non-confidential methodologies and templates for other projects.
Non-editable digital files: All deliverables are provided as non-editable digital files unless specifically described otherwise in the service description or if purchased separately.
Pricing: Pricing valid for 30 days from quote date. Price includes all meetings, work, and one revision round. Additional revisions or scope expansion available at standard hourly rates.
Exclusions: Launch pricing excludes: regulatory submissions, stamped/sealed drawings, construction documents, multiple scenarios (unless specified), extensive sensitivity analysis, attendance at third-party meetings, travel, or integration with client’s existing engineering documents.
