Automation/Modelling
Major research interests
- Nonlinear dynamics and control of chemical processes including
- Particulate processes (fluidized bed granulation and agglomeration, crystallization)
- Integrated chemical processes (e.g. reactive distillation, chromatographic reactors, membrane reactors)
- Chromatographic processes
- Synthesis and mixed integer nonlinear optimization of novel process concepts
- Modeling and dynamics of bioprocesses
