Process Evaluation/Research Planning Program
The Process Evaluation/Research Planning (PERP)
program is globally recognized as the industry
standard source of process evaluations of existing,
new/emerging, and embryonic technologies of
interest to the chemical and energy industries.
PERPs comprehensive studies include detailed
technology analyses, process economics, as well as
commercial overviews and industry trends.
PERP issues twenty reports per program year,
including eight petrochemical updates (building
blocks, intermediates and polymers) and twelve
special topics covering areas such as biotechnology,
specialty/performance materials, refinery products
and engineering know-how.

Benefits

Early identification of commercially significant


developments in major petrochemicals, polymers,
specialties, gases, etc.

Independent comparison of offerings by technology


licensors.

Recognition of opportunities for new products and for


innovative processes.

Realistic, commercially-oriented economic evaluations.

Determination of the potential impact of R&D


breakthroughs.
