Advanced Modelling and Simulation in the Chemical and Biochemical Process IndustryEdition 1

Advanced Modelling and Simulation in the Chemical and Biochemical Process Industry explores modelling and simulation of chemical and biochemical processes at the industrial scale using a variety of approaches. Particular attention is devoted to simulations in different scales, which help achieve a wide-spectrum and more efficient analysis of several problems, ranging from the design of novel materials to the optimization of industrial processes as a function of the operating conditions. This book not only covers optimization with experimental data but also offers readers a thorough understanding and analysis of different parameters of a whole process stream.

• Covers a wide range of advanced modelling and simulation of chemical technologies: ab initio, atomistic molecular dynamics (MD), Lattice-Boltzmann (LB), dissipative particle dynamics (DPD), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and finite element (FEM)
• Addresses issues associated with process control in different phases of the chemical industry
• Features modelling approaches that allow the design of novel processes/materials in a faster and more reliable way

This book will be of interest to researchers and advanced readers in chemical, biochemical, environmental, and materials engineering and industrial chemistry.
