Elsevier 14th International Symposium on Process Systems Engineering (Volume 49) (Computer Aided Chemical Engineering, Volume 49)

Product Description 14th International Symposium on Process Systems Engineering, Volume 49 brings together the international community of researchers and engineers interested in computing-based methods in process engineering. The conference highlights the contributions of the PSE community towards the sustainability of modern society and is based on the 2021 event held in Tokyo, Japan, July 1-23, 2021. It contains contributions from academia and industry, establishing the core products of PSE, defining the new and changing scope of our results, and covering future challenges. Plenary and keynote lectures discuss real-world challenges (globalization, energy, environment and health) and contribute to discussions on the widening scope of PSE versus the consolidation of the core topics of PSE.

About the Author Yoshiyuki Yamashita is a professor and a chair of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) in Tokyo. His main areas of expertise include process monitoring and control, as well as artificial intelligence and smart manufacturing. He received his BS, MS and PhD degrees in chemical engineering all from Tohoku University (Sendai, Japan) and subsequently became an assistant professor and associate professor at Tohoku University before joining TUAT in 2007. Dr. Yamashita chairs the Industry-University Research Committee on Process Systems Engineering, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, since 2016. He is the recepient of the Young Investigator Award of the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan in 1993, and Outstanding Paper Award of the Journal of Chemical Engineering of Japan in 2000, 2008, 2019 and 2020. Dr. Manabu Kano is a professor of the Department of Systems Science, Kyoto University. He received BS, MS, and PhD degrees from the Department of Chemical Engineering, Kyoto University, in 1992, 1994, and 1999. He has been working at Kyoto University since 1994. From 1999 to 2000, he was a Visiting Scholar with Ohio State University, U.S. His research interest has focused on applying systems approach and data analytics to various problems related to manufacturing processes and medical and healthcare services. He started a medical venture company ‘Quadlytics Inc.’ in 2018. Dr. Kano was a recipient of many awards, including the Best Paper Awards and the Technology Awards from the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE), the Sawamura Paper Award from the Iron and Steel Institute of Japan (ISIJ), and the Outstanding Paper Awards of J. Chem. Eng. Japan and the Technology Award from the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan (SCEJ).
