Michael Schultz's Problem Solving Experience:

  1. I developed the design of a dividing wall column (DWC) distillation technology to reduce capital costs by 50% and energy costs by 25%.
  2. I provided an third party engineering review of a first of its kind commercial plant in the pharmaceutical industry.
  3. I identified project development opportunities and prepared a strategic execution plan for a commercial firm with small scale natural gas monetization technology.
  4. I developed a scale-up plan for a novel biotechnology to derisk and optimize economics.
  5. I developed a conceptual process design for a company producing renewable hydrocarbons by selecting catalysts, planning experiments, and developing the process concept.
  6. I provided technical due diligence for an investor in the biotechnology space by assessing the technology and IP portfolio.
  7. I developed a material and energy balance for a first of its kind technology to serve as the basis for a pilot plant design.
