Momenta Ventures is pleased to announce its investment in ChemTech AI:
- ChemTech AI is a New York-based provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) based productivity solutions for complex continuous manufacturing processes
- The company currently operates primarily in the petrochemical, food, and cosmetics industries
- Chemtech AI’s co-founders – Oleg Giiazov, Dimitry Shalupkin, and Evgeny Bunin – are process industry specialists with deep experience in petrochemical engineering
ChemTech AI combines theoretical thermodynamic and statistical modeling with deep industry experience to develop an AI based solution that assists operators in running and optimizing processing plants. The company offers two advanced solutions: AI Operator and ChemTab AI. Together, these solutions create and optimize a digital twin of complex continuous manufacturing processes. These processes involve monitoring hundreds of parameters to optimize product quality and maximize output. Typically, operators can only monitor a subset of these parameters, leaving significant room for assistance and optimization.
Using AI Operator, ChemTech AI customers can monitor and automate processes, increasing output and reducing the risk of human errors. Outcomes can be improved even further by leveraging ChemTab AI which analyzes past operations data to create a thermodynamic ‘digital twin’ model of the process. ChemTab AI enables customers to predict outcomes of their processes by testing various parameters and simulating the impact across product quality and equipment utilization, providing a prediction of the process outcomes 15 to 30 minutes in the future.
Ken Forster, Executive Director of Momenta Ventures said “We were intrigued by the deep industry experience in ChemTech AI’s team and the results of their early pilots. Manufacturing is one of our core Digital Industry sectors, and the use of AI to optimize operating efficiency and reduce risk is a thematic focus for us.”
Oleg Giiazov, Founder of ChemTech AI said “We are pleased to see Momenta Ventures with us. Momenta’s intimate manufacturing industry knowledge is valuable for ChemTech AI. This investment is an essential milestone in our way of improving and changing the manufacturing industry.”
