inert within the reaction system. The next step is extending the
application range of current methodology to multi-stage
reactions (because, for example, pharmaceutical reactions are
normally multi-step), more complex reaction systems, known
solvent substitution problems as well as reaction promotion.

Optimizing control of the integrated urban wastewater system
Since the EU Water Framework directive came into force in
2000, wastewater systems (sewer system and wastewater
treatment plants) in Europe have been put under pressure to
reduce the number of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) from
the system to protect the aquatic environment. The aim of this
project is to formulate the problem of design and analysis of the
regulatory level from a process control perspective and to
develop a methodological approach to find the optimal solution.
The project aims at developing a methodology for determining
the best control structure and technique for an integrated system
of both sewer system and wastewater plants, when optimizing
towards defined objectives, e.g. minimizing flooding, overflow
from the sewer system, bypass from the WWTP, electrical
consumption, etc.One of the issues to be examined is the
robustness of the control structure with respect to actuator
failure and uncertainty on measurements.Also the optimization
of the system is addressed. With the introduction of better
climate models and radar predictions of the precipitation it
might be possible to introduce a supervisory control layer with
Real Time Optimization (RTO).
