Objectives

The symposium is designed to bring together industrial researchers, process engineers, academic researchers, and decision makers in the area analyzing complex processes and systems. Its goal is to showcase procedures, methodologies, programs, applications, and projects that bridge the gap between fundamental research efforts and industrial applications, and to stimulate the development of more advances in this area. Plenary sessions and research presentations will address the area of modeling complex processes with emphasis on the thermodynamic, kinetic, molecular, and systems aspects. The symposium will also identify critical needs and hurdles and will present state-of-the art concepts and techniques.

Topics

• Thermodynamics of Complex Mixtures

• Kinetic Modeling and Reaction Schemes of 
   Complex Processes

• Contributions of Molecular Modeling

• Process Synthesis, Integration, and Dynamics

Format

The Symposium will be a two-day event that includes:

• Plenary Sessions
• Parallel Technical Sessions
• Poster Sessions/Exhibits

Who Should Attend

Academic and industrial researchers as well as practicing engineers are invited to attend. The symposium will provide: (1) an opportunity for researchers and engineering practitioners to present their research results to their peers, (2) a forum of exchange of ideas and information, (3) implications of technological innovations for future research on modeling complex processes, and (4) an opportunity to learn about funding, access to data and new programs.



Selected papers presented at the Symposium will be published in a special issue of Computers and Chemical Engineering.
