A Method for Chemical and Biochemical Sustainable Process Synthesis, Design and Intensification
Abstract
The aim of systematic process synthesis-design is to identify the processing route which gives a desired product from a set of raw materials including unit operation design, utility needs, waste generation and sustainability parameters. While, Process Intensification (PI) provides a way to design new and innovative solutions or redesign existing ones leading to more sustainable and efficient solutions. Thus, it is logical to integrate process synthesis-design and intensification to achieve sustainable chemical and biochemical solutions.
