Research Conference: Chemical Process Control VII

摘要：迈克尔·A. HensonInstitution：马萨诸塞州/阿默斯特大学提案编号：0451082学术价值：化学过程控制（CPC）系列会议旨在审查和评估过程控制技术的现状。 根据这一目标，自1976年以来，该会议每五年举行一次。 所有的口头报告都是通过邀请，以确保会议的主题是由国际知名的研究人员以一致的方式覆盖。 第七届中国共产党大会将于2006年1月8日至13日在加拿大阿尔伯塔的露易丝湖举行。 CPC VII的目标是为讨论过程控制研究和教育的现状和未来需求提供一个开放的形式。 自第一次会议以来，“过程控制”一词的解释越来越广泛。 除了关于传统化学过程控制专题的会议外，CPC VII还将讨论新出现的应用领域，包括微化学和燃料电池系统、多尺度系统、信息和企业系统以及系统生物学。 会议的主题是“核心技术和新兴应用评估”。“更广泛的影响：更好的过程控制应该导致更有效地运作的化学，石化，制药等制造设施，这应该有利于美国经济。 学术界、工业界和政府官员之间的相互作用应促进过程控制研究和教育。

ABSTRACTPI: Michael A. HensonInstitution: University of Massachusetts/AmherstProposal Number: 0451082Intellectual Merit:The Chemical Process Control (CPC) conference series is aimed at reviewing and assessing the current state of process control technology. Consistent with this goal, the conference has been held every five years since 1976. All oral presentations are by invitation only to ensure that the conference themes are covered in a consistent fashion by internationally renowned researchers. The CPC VII conference will take place January 8-13, 2006 in Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. This grant is to defray travel and conference expenses of the invited academic speakers.The goal of CPC VII is to provide an open form for discussing the current state and future needs of process control research and education. Since the initial conference, the term "process control" has been interpreted in an increasingly broad sense. In addition to sessions on traditional chemical process control topics, CPC VII will address emerging applications areas including microchemical and fuel cell systems, multiscale systems, information and enterprise systems and systems biology. The theme of the meeting is "Assessment of Core Technologies and Emerging Applications."Broader Impact:Better process control should lead to more efficient operation of chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, etc. manufacturing facilities, which should benefit the US economy. The interaction of academics, industrial practitioners and government officials should advance process control research and education.
