The softer side of scaleup is reviewed in Dos and Don’ts of Scaleup. The important starting point, the importance of recognizing scale effects, different attitudes, approaches, methods and heuristics are presented. The scaleup ratio, geometric similarity, effective geometries, use of pilot plants, analogies, retrofits and myths are specifically examined.
