The Centre for Process Systems Engineering

 
Image: CPSE LogoThe Centre for Process Systems Engineering (CPSE) is a multi-institutional research centre inaugurated in August 1989. It involves Imperial College London and University College London, and is based at the Imperial College London South Kensington campus.

The Centre is an international research leader in Process Systems Engineering concerned with the management of complexity in uncertain systems, modelled across many time and scale lengths. Process Engineers are concerned with systems involving physical and chemical change and aim to manage complexity in such systems. Process Systems Engineering is the study of approaches to analysis and design of complex process engineering systems and the development tools and techniques required for this.

The tools enable Process Systems Engineers to systematically develop products and processes across a wide range of systems involving chemical and physical change: from molecular and genetic phenomena to manufacturing processes and to related business processes.

The Centre is dedicated to performing research and to developing integrated models, methodologies and tools to exploit complex, multi-scaled physical, engineering and industrial systems through:
• Requirements and functional analysis
• Modelling and design
• Simulation
• Optimisation
• Experimentation
• Visualisation

Our research is highly relevant primarily to a range of industries including the oil and gas, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, polymers, food and beverage and consumer sectors.
