Machine learning in process systems engineering: Challenges and opportunities

This “white paper” is a concise perspective of the potential of machine learning in the process systems engineering (PSE) domain, based on a session during FIPSE 5, held in Crete, Greece, June 27–29, 2022. The session included two invited talks and three short contributed presentations followed by extensive discussions. This paper does not...

Performance of an internally cooled and heated desiccant-coated heat and mass exchanger: Effectiveness criteria and design methodology

Internally cooled and heated desiccant-coated heat and mass exchangers (ICHDHMX) driven by low-grade heat are very attractive owing to their energy-saving potential, especially for applications where substantial moisture removal (such as air-conditioning) is a necessity. In this paper, we derive equations for the performance of an ideal...
