Research Interests:

Our research efforts are directed in the area of chemical and biological process systems engineering. Within this specialization, our work deals specifically with the understanding and quantification of chemical and biological systems and toward the development of systematic methodologies for their modeling, synthesis, analysis, and - ultimately - their optimal design. Below are specific research topics that are currently under investigation: Synthesis Strategies for Pollution Prevention and Integrated Resource Recovery, Optimal Design of Separation Processes for Solid Systems, Heat and Mass Integrated Power Generation and Refrigeration Cycle Synthesis, and Biological Process Network Synthesis.
