AI-Driven Safe and High-Quality Development in Process Industries

Dear Colleagues,

Process systems engineering (PSE) integrates process engineering, systems engineering, intelligent engineering, control engineering, information technology, computer technology, management science and other disciplines of theory and technology. With the development of artificial intelligence, 5G technology, big data, blockchain and robots, PSE aims at energy saving, environmental protection, safety control, optimized operation and process strengthening of complex process production systems. In recent years, artificial intelligence technology has transformed process system engineering, comprehensively reshaping its core methods such as modeling, optimization, control and decision-making, and driving its advancement towards intelligent upgrading and deep integration.

This Special Issue on “AI-Driven Safe and High-Quality Development in Process Industries” seeks high-quality works focusing on the latest novel developments in process systems engineering. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Intelligent methods and applications in process engineering;
• Application and practice of large models in process industry;
• Process simulation, analysis, optimization and monitoring;
• Risk analysis, fundamental safety theory and practice;
• Development and application of information technology integration.

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. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. 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 special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

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-blind 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 monthly 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.
