One of the challenges expressed by lithium battery manufacturers is that they have to be fast and agile because each of their customers may have different formulations for the cathode, anode, and electrolyte material.

Improving Quality in Midstream Lithium Production
The midstream part of the lithium value chain involves manufacturing the Cathode, Anode, Electrolyte, and Separator. We will focus on the cathode, anode, and electrolyte in this series of posts. The process for making the Cathode, Anode, and Electrolyte is very similar. The process involves batch reactors and mixing.
Solving Battery Production Growth Challenges
The growth of lithium-ion battery production for electric vehicles will occur in mining, battery component manufacturing, and battery cell production from an automation standpoint.
Chemical Industry Solutions for Safety Performance Improvements
In an AIChE recorded webinar, Digital Innovations for Improving Safety in Chemical Plants, Emerson’s Michael Machuca and Marty McDonough highlight was to drive safety improvements for this important industry.
Driving Repeatable Chemical Manufacturing Batch Operations
In a recorded webinar, Achieving Repeatable Golden Batch Outcomes, Chemical Engineering magazine’s Scott Jenkins hosts Emerson’s Michael Machuca and Marty McDonough to discuss some of the automation solutions that can improve the Right First Time metric.
Improving Chemical Manufacturing Process Efficiencies
A series of chemical industry webinars beginning later this month on ways to drive process efficiencies and lower operational costs with Michael Machuca, Marty McDonough and Andrew Cureton.
Improving Well Pad Lease Tank Oil Custody Transfer
Onshore oil & gas well pads have long used small lease tanks to hold the crude oil before transferring to be hauled away, typically by crude hauling trucks. Traditionally, this custody transfer process has involved operators climbing up the lease tanks, opening...
Ways to Reduce Oil and Gas Lease Operating Expenses
For onshore oil & gas producers, squeezing every expense possible from the production and custody transfer process means the difference between flowing and shutting in the wells. In an RBN Energy post, LOE-Down - Understanding Lease Operating Expenses And How They...
Managing Oil and Gas Produced Fluids from Allocation to Sale
For onshore oil & gas producers, how accurate are your measurements from allocations at the wellhead to custody transfer? In a recorded webinar, Produced Fluids Management – Getting Paid for What you Produce, Emerson's Michael Machuca describes the financial gains...
Optimizing Shale Oil and Gas Production
While the news of an OPEC oil freeze increases prices, at least in the short term, they remain well below their levels of a few years ago. The focus for oil and gas producers remains on optimizing their current producing wells at the expense of new drilling. Emerson's...
Reducing Unaccounted Oil and Gas Production Uncertainty
Author: Michael Machuca Management of well pad inventory, allocation and custody transfers encompasses multiple operations that contribute to overall production management uncertainty. The accumulated measurement errors and variability in operations within a storage...
Optimizing Well Pad Production and Storage
Where new production was once the major focus, optimizing existing oil & gas well pads and production facilities is now high on the priority list to reduce operating costs. In an American Oil & Gas Reporter article, Production Optimization: 'Systems' Approach...
