Abstract

A considerable number of studies have been performed for improving the efficiency of production processes, of energy supply and utilisation, while reducing emissions of greenhouse gases, volatile organic compounds and other pollutants. This has been a very important task which this journal has been targeting. As a response to these industrial and societal requirements considerable research effort has been targeted to process integration and process intensification. This article has made an attempt for a short assessment of those advanced engineering approaches.
