Mixed reality and digital twins offer two prominent technological approaches that have the potential to revolutionize chemical industries. However, there are some hurdles that need to be overcome before these technologies can be widely adopted. One major challenge can be found in cooperation of interdisciplinary teams. In order to create an effective practical solution, mixed reality researchers need to be aware of the heterogeneity of data, scale and requirements of the real-life scenes. Moreover, engineers in process industries need to understand the functional requirements of mixed reality solutions. To close this existing gap, this paper presents an exemplary use case model with market requirements and technological potentials, system interfaces, and role models to serve as a reference model for future trans-disciplinary research on this use case.     «
