  • Pilot plant (Frascati Manual)

Definition: Pilot plant

Frascati Manual

The construction and operation of a pilot plant is a part of R&D as long as the principal purposes are to obtain experience and to compile engineering and other data. But if, as soon as this experimental phase is over, a pilot plant switches to operating as a normal commercial production unit, the activity can no longer be considered R&D even though it may still be described as a "pilot plant".
