Lorenz Biegler Photo Lorenz T. Biegler
Bayer Professor - Chemical Engineering
Prof. Biegler's research interests lie in optimization of systems in computer aided process engineering (CAPE). These include flowsheet optimization, optimization of systems of differential and algebraic equations, reactor network synthesis and algorithms for constrained, nonlinear process control.

Ignacio Grossman Photo Ignacio Grossmann
Director - CAPD; R.D. University Professor of Chemical Engineering
Our aim is to develop novel discrete/continuous optimization models and techniques for problems in process systems engineering, with special emphasis on planning, scheduling, and more broadly, enterprise-wide optimization. Our techniques, which include mixed-integer and disjunctive programming for handling discrete and continuous decisions, and stochastic programming for incorporating uncertainty issues, are applied to batch and continuous processes, process supply chains, and to energy systems, including gas and oil, IGCC, and biomass.
