Welcome to CAPEC
Computer Aided Process-Product Engineering Center (CAPEC) of Technical University of Denmark (DTU) is committed to research work in close collaboration with industry and to participate in educational activities. The research objectives of CAPEC can be summarised as:
Development of Computer Aided Systems for Chemical and Biochemical Product-Process Modelling/Simulation, Synthesis, Design, Analysis and Control/Operation for Chemical, Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical, Agrochemical, Food and Biochemical Industries.
The dissemination of the research results of CAPEC is carried out in terms of:
Computational Tools
Property estimation methods, mathematical models, numerical solvers, process simulators, process-product synthesis/design toolbox, process control toolbox and many more
Technology
Methodologies for process-product synthesis, design, analysis and control/operation, simulation strategies, solvent selection/design, pollution prevention, sustainable process-product alternatives and many more
Application
Industrial case studies, tutorial case studies, technology transfer studies and consulting

PhD-course 28901 - Advanced Computer Aided Modelling
# The 20 Apr 2012 by Eva Mikkelsen
PhD-course 28901 Advanced Computer Aided Modelling will be given for two weeks during 2-13 July 2012. There will be lectures every day (Monday-Friday) between 09:00-12:00. The afternoons are free but should be spent on solving tutorial exercises. During the course lectures, several exam problems will be given. Solutions for these problems and a course final-exam problem (to be given on the last day of the course) need to be submitted as a report.
Process Technology For The Future World
# The 19 Mar 2012 by Eva Mikkelsen
On Friday 2 March Prof. Rafiqul Gani gave a presentation on “A model-data based systems approach to process intensification” at the TU Delft Process Technology Institute, The Netherlands, at the inaugural scientific conference “Process Technology For The Future World - Building Bridges Across Boundaries”. The program can be found by clicking here. The entire session and the details of all sheets presented can be now seen via the following link. TU Delft Process Technology Institute is newly established and comprises fourteen full-time chairs with nearly 200 PhD students, post-docs and guest researchers in three department: Chemical Engineering, Bio-technology and Process & Energy. The Institute will focus on multidisciplinary research in three areas: Biochemical Process Engineering, Process Intensification and Process Technology for Advanced Materials.
