Process intensification offers the potential to drastically reduce the energy consumption and
cost of producing chemicals from both bulk and distributed feedstocks. This review article …

In this paper, we survey the main superstructure-based approaches in process system
engineering, with a particular emphasis on the existing literature for automated …

Filling a void in chemical engineering and optimization literature, this book presents the
theory and methods for nonlinear and mixed-integer optimization, and their applications in …

Crystallization Process Systems gives a clear, concise, balanced and up to date
presentation of crystallization and solid-liquid separation of the crystalline product. The …

This article first reviews recent developments in process synthesis and discusses some of
the major challenges in the theory and practice in this area. Next, the article reviews key …

This work presents a review of the main deterministic mixed‐integer nonlinear programming
(MINLP) solution methods for problems with convex and nonconvex functions. An overview …

In principle, optimization‐based “superstructure” methods for process synthesis can be more
powerful than sequential‐conceptual methods as they account for all complex interactions …

The first guide to compile current research and frontline developments in the science of
process intensification (PI), Re-Engineering the Chemical Processing Plant illustrates the …

We discuss the impact over the past 40 years of process systems thinking on the design of
chemical processes. We first explore the rich set of issues related to process design, only …

Process alternatives for continuous crystallization, ie, cascades of mixed suspension, mixed
product removal crystallizers (MSMPRCs) and plug flow crystallizers (PFCs), as well as …
