Our
current research efforts are focused on the development of integrated
modeling and control strategies for the polymer, consumer products, and
pharmaceutical manufacturing industries. A unifying theme for these
diverse problems is the key role of particles in the manufacturing
process and in the final product properties. Therefore we have
substantial research and development efforts aimed at on-line
measurement, dynamic modeling, and real-time control of particle
distributions. An integrated program of experimental, theoretical, and
computational studies is pursued to ensure the process technology has a
sound fundamental basis and industrial applicability. We also have
active research projects in more traditional areas of chemical
processing including cryogenic air separations and pulp and paper
manufacturing. For further information about our modeling and control research please contact: Prof. Michael A. Henson Department of Chemical Engineering 259A Goessmann Laboratory University of Massachusetts Amherst, MA 01003 Phone: 413-545-3481 Fax: 413-545-1647 Email: henson@ecs.umass.edu |
