Machine learning in chemical engineering: A perspective

Discussion of perspecitves for future interdisciplinary research and transformation of chemical engineering by identifying challenges and formulation problems for machine learning.

The concept of selectivity control by simultaneous distribution of the oxygen feed and wall temperature in a microstructured reactor

This paper explores the feasibility of controlling the selectivity of a partial oxidation reaction by simultaneous modulation of local oxygen concentration and coolant temperature along the length of a reactor. The microstructured membrane reactor …

Techno-economic optimization of a green-field post-combustion CO2 capture process using superstructure and rate-based models

A techno-economic optimization of a commercial-scale, amine-based, post-combustion CO2 capture process is carried out. The most economically favorable process configuration, sizing and operating conditions are identified using a superstructure …
