2.\u00a0 SEMINAR\u2019s focus<\/h3>\n
To design the next generation of user requirements for Active Waste Decontamination (AWD) system.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blogit.utu.fi\/industryseminars\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/419\/2022\/12\/Elomatic.002-216x300.jpeg\")
The AWD system consists of Active Waste collection piping going to two tanks. One tank is collecting while the other tank is processing the liquid. The processing can consist of chemical additions or heating of the waste liquid. After processing the deactivated waste liquid is pumped to the municipal wastewater system (see picture).<\/p>\n

3. DESCRIPTION<\/h3>\n
Elomatic has decades of experience in designing, constructing, and qualifying new facilities and production lines for pharmaceutical, medical device and related companies. Our designs have gained cGMP approval from authorities in Europe, US and India to name a few.<\/p>\n
Our services encompass all investment phases from creating a concept to delivering the final report on operational qualification \u2013 whether your needs concern the contained production of potent API or the biological manufacturing of vaccines.<\/p>\n
We use agreed standards and guidelines (such as GMP, ISO, ACME and ISPE) as the basis, and tailor the design according to your requirements. Our goal is to create the smoothest possible process for obtaining the needed approvals for your investment.<\/p>\n
4. CHALLENGE<\/h3>\n
Engineers produce technologies for others to use. To increase the impact of these technologies across different contexts, engineers need to be able to communicate clearly with different stakeholders in order to conceptualize, design and deploy any technology. Often, for this communication process engineers utilize user requirements tools. However often these tools might be unclear and or omit valuable information. These can affect engineers, developers and end users.<\/p>\n
Elomatic has created (and sold) a couple of Active Waste Decontamination (AWD) systems for decontamination of active wastes from pharmaceutical facilities. Novel technology that is able to clean the water from residues of pharmaceuticals production waste, which utilizes modern approaches to medicaments, is fundamental.\u00a0 The process of cleaning the water must take place before liquid join other water treatment facilities.<\/p>\n
Elomatic is planning to create an AWD-package including delivery, testing and qualification as well as the documentation. The engineering equipment should have a clear interface for its customer, which might include: operators, engineering and decision makers.<\/p>\n
In this seminar session, we will learn about the Active Waste Decontamination (AWD) technology of Elomatic. We want to challenge the future engineers to create a package which benefits the communication and understanding between the future engineers who will be leading the development of forthcoming AWD and end-user engineers.\u00a0 How would you provide a more holistic approach to communicate the current requirements in the market for AWD? These requirements include user friendliness, spare parts, maintenance, etc.<\/p>\n
You are invited to constructively analyze the current tools that Elomatic utilize for the AWD and offer ideas on how to improve them. Perhaps you even detected what are the key and unique aspects of these engineering products.<\/p>\n

treatment for pharmaceuticals. Explore and extract what these organizations o<\/span>ff<\/span>er to <\/span>
their customers and how they communicate their product and services.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
There are many tools and approaches. In this task, we want<\/span> you to familiarece with <\/span>
some research done in the area and analyze certain tools. Consequently taks 2 <\/span>
consists of two activities: <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
perspective on user requirements. If you do not find any publication <\/span>
interesting from your perspective, you can read one of the following <\/span>
suggestions:<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
your main findings in the topic<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n
these tools and explore it briefly. Finally, report the aspects that you find <\/span>
interesting and apparently easy to use of the tool you selected. Also mention <\/span>
if there is any aspect that might be related with the academic knowledge you <\/span>
gain in the previous activity related to user requirements.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
several user points in the production. The <\/span>liquid waste is directed to one of two <\/span>
collecting tanks. When one tank is full, it will <\/span>close and the decontamination process (in this <\/span>case by heating with factory steam in the <\/span>jacket of the tank) will start. <\/span> <\/span>The other tank will start collecting the liquid <\/span>waste while the other is processing. After a <\/span>successful decontamination cycle, the liquid <\/span>will be led to the municipal wastewater<\/span> treatment plant.<\/span> <\/span>
<\/span><\/p>\n
analyze the URS based on your chosen role. Think about what could be improved in <\/span>
terms of usability, operating safety, or e<\/span>ff<\/span>ectiveness of the decontamination. Based <\/span>
on the URS, how would you design the system?<\/span> <\/span>
<\/span><\/p>\nSubmission report.\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n
include the three tasks of the pre-assignment:<\/span> <\/span>
<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022<\/span><\/span>What organizations you detect, include their websites.<\/span> <\/span><\/span>
\u2022<\/span><\/span>What product and services did you analyze, what were their main <\/span>
characteristics.<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Task 2.<\/span> <\/strong><\/span>
\u2022<\/span><\/span>Activity 2.1.<\/span> Report what article you read, including its<\/span> bibliography, and write a <\/span>
summary of what you have learned from reading the article.<\/span> <\/span><\/span>
\u2022<\/span><\/span>Activity 2.2.<\/span> Report<\/span> what user requirement tool from the market you select, <\/span>
including its website. Indicate how you analyze it, and specify the relevant aspects <\/span>
that you detect of the tool that are useful and easy to learn. Also indicate if you find <\/span>
any characteristic of the tool liked to the academic knowledge you learned earlier.<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/span>
<\/span><\/p>\n
\u2022<\/span><\/span>Specify what was the role you took when reviewing the material. The options you <\/span>
have were: an operator, engineer or decision maker.<\/span> <\/span><\/span>
