Description This book includes papers presented at ESCAPE-10, the 10th European Symposium on Computer Aided Process -Engineering, held
in Florence, Italy, 7-10th May, 2000.
The scientific program reflected two complementary strategic objectives of the 'Computer
Aided Process Engineering' (CAPE) Working Party: one checked the status of historically consolidated topics by means of their industrial
application and their emerging issues, while the other was addressed to opening new windows to the CAPE audience by inviting adjacent
Working Parties to co-operate in the creation of the technical program.
The former CAPE strategic objective was covered by the topics: Numerical Methods, Process Design and Synthesis, Dynamics & Control, Process Modeling, Simulation and Optimization.
The latter CAPE strategic objective derived from the European Federation of Chemical Engineering (EFCE) promotion of scientific activities
which autonomously and transversely work across the Working Parties' terms of references. These activities enhance the exchange of the
know-how and knowledge acquired by different Working Parties in homologous fields. They also aim to discover complementary facets useful
to the dissemination of tools and of novel procedures.
As a consequence, the Working Parties 'Environmental Protection', 'Loss Prevention
and Safety Promotion' and 'Multiphase Fluid Flow' were invited to assist in the organization of sessions in the area of: A Process
Integrated Approach for: Environmental Benefit, Loss Prevention and Safety, Computational Fluid Dynamics.
A
total of 473 abstracts from all over the world were evaluated by the International Scientific Committee. Out of them 197 have been finally
selected for the presentation and reported into this book. Their authors come from thirty different countries. The selection of the papers
was carried out by twenty-eight international reviewers.
These proceedings will be a major reference document to the scientific and
industrial community and will contribute to the progress in Computer Aided Process Engineering.
Audience
For scientists, technologists and industrialists interested in theoretical and applied aspects of computer aided process engineering.
