The
chemical and allied industries are of greatest importance for the modern
society but their paradigm is changing due to the harsh economic conditions,
limited feed stock and high demand of their products. Much emphasis and efforts
were devoted to design inherently safer and economic conceptual design, process
imagination, process intensification, revamps, energy optimization, and
sustainability. The creative efforts/innovations were evaluated againstsubstantial economic advantages and overall sustainability impact.
From last
two decade, a major shift has begun for above tasks in chemical industry, since
there is a need of software tools to help optimization, integration,
intensification, sustainability, etc., for design and operation in chemical
process industry. Approaches to address and solve problem may differs for the
same task, platform (software/ language) may be different, problems and
objectives can be different too, but todays industry is centered on modeling
and simulation. This editorial focuses and reviews how modelling and simulation
plays role in modern process industry and available tools. Read more>>>>>>>>>>
