Introduction: The article addresses to problem of evaluate productions growth possibilities in chemical industry. A heuristic procedure is proposed that includes possibilities of a new investment or modernizing and intensifying an existing installation evaluation. Specifically, the possible solution for sulfuric acid production is analyzed, in which the existence of an industrial facility in Matanzas province, Cuba, founded in the 1940s plays a key role. Objective: To apply an elaborated strategy to increase the availability of a chemical product with minimal investment expenses on scientifically founded bases. Materials and Methods: A methodology is proposed that is applicable to the country problem solution. The methodology consists of several stages that allow: problem determination, problem magnitude measurement, chemical products mesh definition, technological study, plants to satisfy needs of these products' existence or not, as well as the need to modify them or to make new investments and to carry out the investment technical economic study. Results and Discussion: The studied process of Matanzas' sulfuric acid plant is a typical case in which an installation modernization is required. The proposed methodology is applicable to evaluate alternatives for chemical industry development. Conclusions: The proposed methodology is applicable to evaluate alternatives for chemical industry development. The studied process in Matanzas' sulfuric acid plant is a typical case in which an installation modernization is required. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The transference of technologies of the university to the sugar industry the Cuban is indented to lift the levels of production and of services of the society present-day and he calls for bigger integration of knowledge for it. The developed investigation comes from the transactional descriptive, patterned factfinding type integrated by techniques like the analysis of semantic contents, based in Kockelmans valuation method, 1975. They expose the benefits that come from the transference of technologies of the university to the sugar industry focused to the Valuable Nets like a jump to the society of knowledge. The Cuban, sharing resources gets for herself the construction of theoretic definitions that help to understand and to appraise the importance of the use of Valuable Nets like mechanism that contributes to the integration of knowledge among the university and sugar industry and to complement him mutually to obtain competitive advantages, and contributing to the bringing up to date of the economic model Cuban, pass mark during the 6to Congress of Party Communist of Cuba. Finally, the Model of valuable Nets that permits his materialization, the general procedure are offered, and a sign of results obtained with his application to depart of the technological transference that University of Holguin "Oscar Lucero Moya" to enterprise sugar mill "Jesus Rabbi" of the municipality of Calimete at Matanzas province. It is been able to describe the influence that exercises the Valuable Nets in the transference of technologies in present-day achievements attained by this enterprise. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Technology transfer is common today in most of the technological processes in developed and developing sub. The implementation of mechanisms for technology transfer in the fermentation process is performed with a high risk in their implementation, given the degree of uncertainty that run, which causes the effectiveness of it is reduced by a large percent. This work establishes a methodology to implement technology transfer, considering the uncertainty in fermentation processes allow us to establish properly the way to run this activity with a reduced risk.

This work gives the experience about the modifications made to the strategy for technology transfer of a chemical process, in order to assimilate technologies for biogas production with energetic purpose, turning it into a tool specifically for the latter and considering new elements, such as the environmental impact expected, that strengthen the basic strategy. From here were developed, based on the heuristic strategy, one technology proposal to produce biogas for energy purposes from the waste available in the sugar industry sceneries.

The results are presented from the evaluation of management capabilities in the technology transfer as a strategy for the resizing of the sugar enterprise "Argeo Martinez", in Guantánamo province. The article suggests some ideas and solutions that should be developed in the future to improve the present results. The causes of the management capabilities main alteration, in the technology transfer process for the enterprise resizing, are identified, through the diagnose instruments and multicriteria analisis. It also presents the management deficiencies that hinder a major socioeconomic impact of the incorporated technologies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this work, a series of criteria is exposed and premises, that are due to consider to establish a technology of production of Bioetanol from bagasse and solid wastes of Santa Clara city. In addition the fundamental stages of the process that guarantee the fulfillment of the pre-selected targets for each one of them, in agreement with the characterization made to the solid wastes of this city is set.

In order to obtain a competitive development of the Cuban Chemical Industry it is of vital importance of considering the application of the Analysis of Processes in the assimilation of new technologies that allow the power sustentables companies to consolidate of technological form and environmentally compatible. In the work is described a work methodology, with the help of the tools of the Analysis of Processes, that allows to include the main aspects to evaluate for the assimilation of new technologies like result of the technological development in the industry of chemical processes; the same one can perfectly be applicable to other industrial processes, as the case of the Sugar Industry.
