"In recent years remarkable progress has been made by applying mathematical methods in process simulation and optimization, resulting in significant improvements in the design and operation of industrial production plants. Simulation and Optimization in Process Engineering: The Benefit of Mathematical Methods in Applications of the Chemical Industry brings together examples where the successful transfer of progress made in mathematical simulation and optimization has led to innovations in industry that created substantial benefit. Containing introductory accounts on scientific progress has been transferred to innovations that delivered a measurable impact, covering details of the methods used, how they were implemented in industry, which hurdles had to be overcome and how they created benefit - often beyond what had first been expected. With each chapter bringing together expertise from academia and industry, this book is unique in providing verifiable insights. This book will be useful for chemical engineers, process engineers, and research and development staff in the process industry." --
