A specialist resource for technically difficult project work.
ONB Engineering Research & Technical Services, LLC is a process-engineering and technical consulting practice working across chemical, energy, oil and gas, mining and critical-mineral, and manufacturing systems.
ONB leads defined studies and design work packages or integrates with larger client, laboratory, university, EPC, and prime-contractor teams. Work spans feasibility, modeling, scale-up, PFD/P&ID development, equipment definition, TEA/LCA, due diligence, and optimization.
The practice is structured around principal-level technical accountability, documented assumptions, recognizable engineering outputs, and recommendations tied to the client’s next decision.

Omar M. Basha, Ph.D., P.E.
Dr. Basha leads ONB Engineering and supports technology developers, manufacturers, research teams, project owners, and investors with process modeling, reactor engineering, scale-up, feasibility studies, preliminary engineering, techno-economic analysis, and technical decision support.
Model
Process simulation, reactor kinetics, sensitivity, uncertainty, digital twins, CFD, and CPFD.
Scale & define
Feasibility, scale-up, FEL studies, PFDs, P&IDs, equipment sizing, and preliminary datasheets.
Quantify
TEA, CAPEX/OPEX, manufacturing cost, TCO, LCA, market analysis, and roadmapping.
Review & improve
Due diligence, model audit, readiness assessment, debottlenecking, value analysis, and redesign.
Corporations & manufacturers
Feasibility, process development, design support, optimization, and independent review.
National laboratories & government
Defined technical work packages, scale-up, TEA/LCA, and mission-oriented engineering support.
Universities & consortia
Translation between research evidence, pilot requirements, industrial constraints, and deployment decisions.
Technology developers, owners & investors
Scale-up readiness, engineering definition, economics, and technical diligence.
Traceable assumptions
Inputs, sources, uncertainty, exclusions, and limitations are documented so work can be reviewed and updated.
Fit-for-purpose detail
Analysis is matched to project stage and decision, avoiding oversimplification and premature detail.
Recognizable work products
Models, calculations, drawings, registers, memoranda, and recommendations are organized for real project use.
Flexible integration
ONB can lead a defined study, supplement a client team, support a prime or EPC, or provide independent review.
