Product and Process Systems Engineering

Computational tools are indispensable for optimising the transformation of raw materials into products in chemical manufacturing, environmental and biological systems. Our core competencies lie in modelling and model solution tools, process operations and control, product and process design. Methodologies are being developed based on advanced modelling tools, optimisation techniques, non-linear analysis, data analysis and visualisation, aiming to innovate product and process design for safe, efficient and sustainable development.
