Several cytological and molecular studies have shown high frequency loss of g...

For the Special Issue Honoring Professor Roy Jackson Optimization Framework for the Synthesis of Chemical Reactor Networks

{The reactor network synthesis problem involves determining the type, size, and interconnections of the reactor units, optimal concentration and temperature prooles, and the heat load requirements of the process. A general framework is presented for the synthesis of optimal chemical reactor networks via an optimization approach. The possible design alternatives are represented via a process sup...
