Model-based product/
process design
The present process development, based on experiments and simulations shall be replaced by a new method of process synthesis in future. Details about possible operation points should be determined before the process by using of mathematical methods, with regard to the structure and the working point of the process. One example is the validation of possible routes for synthesis with standardized criteria, the best evaluated will be implemented.
