Deterministic global optimization

Globally optimal working fluid mixture composition for geothermal power cycles

Numerical optimization is very useful for design and operation of energy processes. As the design has a major impact on the economics of the system, it is desirable to find a global optimum in the presence of local optima. So far, deterministic …

Simultaneous rational design of ion separation membranes and processes

Economically viable water treatment process plants for drinking water purification are a prerequisite for sustainable supply of safe drinking water in the future. However, modern membrane process development experiences a disconnect in this domain: …
