10A01 Advances in Process Design
OverviewThe emphasis of this session is on recent advances in process design. Papers that discuss novel theories and applications, innovative design strategies, incorporation of control elements and environmental considerations, as well as new process design problems, such as those in biological and material manufacturing process design, will be encouraged. The contribution of the paper to the advancement of the state-of-the-art should be clearly stated in the abstract.
