< (BIO)PROCESS ENGINEERING GROUP, IIM-CSIC >

Description

The staff of the (Bio)Process Engineering Group at IIM-CSIC performs research in the area of Bioprocess Engineering, namely regarding the mathematical modelling and computer-aided simulation, optimization and control of unit operations and processes in the bio-industries (e.g. food and biotechnology). We are also interested in bio-systems (systems biology).

• Regarding optimization, the group has extensive experience in global optimization of complex systems, using both deterministic and stochastic approaches, including evolutionary computation techniques.

• Regarding control, the group is developing methods for observation, identification and robust nonlinear control with applications in distributed process systems and (bio)chemical process plants.
