Outline of lecture

To achieve safe and efficient operations of today窶冱 highly integrated chemical processing plants, an understanding of the dynamic behavior is important from both process design and process control perspective. With an emphasis on the dynamic nature of chemical processes, the lecture will cover chemical process modeling (material and energy balances, constitutive relationships, etc.), numerical techniques (numerical integration, algebraic equations), and linear and nonlinear systems analysis (Laplace transforms, bifurcation, etc.). State-of-the-art chemical process control techniques will be also introduced.
