在过去的几年里，信息技术在工程的各个领域变得越来越重要。如果没有信息技术提供的有利方法和工具，化学工程领域取得的许多进展是不可能的。这一趋势今后将继续下去，但很可能范围会大得多。虽然直到最近个别软件工具和服务才成为人们关注的焦点，但将它们集成到工程工作流程中是一个新兴且具有挑战性的研发领域。这篇文章试图强调在化学过程的生命周期中通过信息技术支持活动的最新技术水平和未来趋势。重点将主要放在工艺和工厂设计过程上，而不是在供应链中采购，制造和分配材料。
Information technology has been becoming increasingly important in all areas of engineering during the last few years. Much of the progress achieved in chemical engineering would not have been possible without the enabling methods and tools provided by information technology. This trend will continue in the future but most likely with a considerably wider scope. While individual software tools and services have been in focus until recently, their integration into engineering work processes is an emerging and challenging area of research and development. This contribution attempts to highlight state of the art and future trends in supporting the activities during the life cycle of a chemical process by means of information technology. Emphasis will be largely on the process and plant design process rather than on procurement, manufacturing, and distribution of materials in the supply chain.
