Computational modeling is now generally accepted as an essential procedure for the
dynamic analysis of chemical processes. Many of these processes are distributed parameter …

In this paper we present an algorithmic approach to the generation of fully conservative
difference schemes for linear partial differential equations. The approach is based on …

Recently, different strategies for improving simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatographic
separation processes have been proposed, including a modulation of the feed flow (PREP …

This contribution deals with a new numerical method for an accurate and efficient simulation
of particulate processes. As an example for dispersed phase systems a detailed model for …

As an integral part of an advanced process monitoring and control scheme, the
reconstruction of the spatial concentration, temperature, and pressure profiles of an oxygen …

Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) processes are used for the separation and purification of
gas mixtures. PSA plants are composed of several fixed-bed adsorbers and are operated as …

Recently an efficient method for the simulation of packed bed adsorbers with implicit
adsorption isotherms was presented. It uses a method of lines approach and exploits …

A model library for spatially distributed membrane reactor models is presented. The structure
of the library is guided by a general modelling concept for the systematic formulation of …

Chromatographic separation processes need efficient simulation methods, especially for
nonlinear adsorption isotherms such as the Langmuir isotherms which imply the formation of …

Molten carbonate fuel cells provide a promising technology for the operation of future
stationary power plants. In order to enhance service life, a detailed understanding of the …
