计划优先计划的目标是研究和测试粒子技术中自主过程控制的方法。颗粒产品的复杂性仍然阻碍了在没有外部干预的情况下对产品特性进行独立调整。该项目的创新之处在于将各自基本操作的物质流和数据流与测量技术、过程动力学和控制相结合，形成一个自主过程的闭环系统。在第一阶段，重点将放在单个单元操作的过程控制上，而在第二阶段，将考虑由几个单元操作组成的整个流程链。这将使其首次能够在高和安全的水平上满足颗粒产品所需的性能概况，包括高能源和原材料效率。随着拟议的优先方案的完成，一种新型的“科学工具的积木”(方法、算法、模型、数据结构和信息架构)将可用，这将允许可靠的过程控制，也将转变为新的过程。研究对象是处理固体或流体颗粒的多相过程。重点是工程中典型的技术单元操作，例如颗粒合成过程(气相合成、结晶、沉淀……)、颗粒处理方法(粉碎、团聚、分离……)或产品配方的工艺(挤出、涂布、干燥、流态化……)。这些过程本身可以是批量的，也可以是连续的。只有在颗粒技术、控制和面向计算机科学的工作组之间密切合作，才有可能解决上述挑战。青年和女性科学家的晋升是最高人民大会党特别关注的问题，从博士到教授的资质层级过程中采取了影响深远的措施，以确保这一点。此外，还渴望与国家研究数据基础设施(NFDI)进行密切合作。

The goal of the planned priority program is the research and testing of methods for autonomous process control in particle technology. The complexity of particulate products still prevents an independent adjustment of product properties without external intervention. The originality of the proposed project consists in the coupling of material and data flows of the respective basic operations with measurement technology, process dynamics and control to form a closed loop for an autonomous process. In the first phase, the focus will be on the process control of a single unit operation, while in a second phase, entire process chains consisting of several unit operations will be considered. This will make it possible for the first time to meet the desired property profiles of particulate products, including a high energy and raw material efficiency, at a high and safe level. With the completion of the proposed priority program, a new type of 'building block of scientific tools' (methods, algorithms, models, data structures and information architectures) will be available, which will allow reliable process control and also a transformation to new processes. The objects of investigation are multiphase processes in which solids or also fluid particles are processed. In the focus are the typical technical unit operations in engineering, e.g. processes of particle synthesis (gas phase synthesis, crystallization, precipitation...), methods of particle handling (comminution, agglomeration, separation...) or also processes for product formulation (extrusion, coating, drying, fluidized bed...). The processes themselves can be batch or continuous.Solutions for the described challenges are only possible in close cooperation between particle technological, control based and computer science oriented working groups. The promotion of young and female scientists is a special concern of the SPP, which is ensured by far reaching measures along the qualification cascade from PhD to professorship. Also a close cooperation with the national research data infrastructure (NFDI) is aspired.
