Session: Process Design

This session emphasizes recent advancements in Process Design. Papers that discuss novel theories and applications, innovative design strategies, incorporation of control or environmental considerations into the design process, and non-traditional process design problems will be encouraged. In addition to the traditional mathematical algorithms used for process design, simulation-based approaches are also sought. Industrial-based applications are also of particular interest. The contribution of the paper to the state-of-the-art should be clearly stated in the abstract.
