Process System Engineering for More Efficient Power and Chemicals Production
Topical Collection Information
Dear Colleagues,
Process System Engineering (PSE) is a very powerful tool for the optimization of chemical plants. The need for more efficient processes, especially in energy intensive industries, is driving the research towards more efficient and often compact process designs. The Special Issue, "Process System Engineering for more Efficient Power and Chemical Production" of Processes seeks contributions to assess the state-of-the-art and future developments in the exiting area of process design. Topics include, but are not limited to, process system integration, process intensification, computational driven process synthesis, plant optimization, advanced separations, control and safety systems.
Papers involving industrial exploitation of novel process designs are particularly encouraged to give the reader an overview of the challenges to be faced when integrating novel processes.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the collection website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
