Talk
Information
Process Systems Engineering (PSE) focuses on the development of computer-based mathematical methods for the design, operation, control, and optimisation of chemical, physical and biological processes. Currently, in the domain of chemical engineering research, developing strategic modelling technologies through the adoption of both physical-driven and data-driven approaches has been given significant attention due to their importance in sustainable bio-production. Sustainable bio-production aims to design regenerative and environmentally friendly processes in which feedstocks are directly derived from bio-based materials,such asbiomass and microorganisms. This talk will cover the applications and challenges of utilising state-of-the-art PSE strategies for complex biosystem modelling, bioprocess optimisation, biosynthetic reaction network design, and life cycle assessment. Both traditional kinetic modelling and innovative machine learning methods will be presented. The presentation will also briefly summarise the research themes being conducted in the University of Cambridge, Imperial College London, and the University of Manchester.
