PEC12-25 CAPEC-PROCESS Industrial Consortium ... - DTU Orbit

• Computational Tools. Predictive models for reliable property estimation for a
wide range of chemicals; generic mathematical models for process operation,
product performance; computer-aided tools for product-process synthesis &
design, etc., are used by leading industries and close to 50 universities from all
over the world.
• Technology: Developed systematic methodologies for process-product synthesis,
design, analysis and control (& operation), simulation strategies, solvent selection
(& design), pollution prevention, sustainable process-product alternatives, etc., are
routinely used to solve industrial problems and in education.
• Application: Industrial case studies, tutorial case studies, technology transfer
studies and consulting.
CAPEC is involved in the following large collaborative projects in Denmark and in Europe:
The activities shown in Table 1.1 highlight the scope and significance of the research
results available to the CAPEC-PROCESS industrial consortium members in terms of the
industries where the developed methods and tools are applicable.
Table 1.1: Scope and significance of CAPEC research results shown in terms of industries
where they can be applied (1: Includes also oil & gas industries; 2: includes also specialty
chemicals; * Solving problems in process modelling, simulation, design, analysis and
control)
