Papers
are solicited for a special issue of Computers and Chemical Engineering
on Energy Systems Engineering, co-edited by Venkat
Venkatasubramanian (Purdue University, USA), Michael Georgiadis (University
of Thessaloniki, Greece) and Stratos Pistikopoulos (Imperial College, UK).
The aim of the special issue is to bring forth theoretical advances,
applications and tools in the field of Energy Systems Engineering within
the wider community of process systems engineering. Particular emphasis will be
placed on novel modelling frameworks and optimization techniques that
systematically explore various aspects of a wide range of energy systems and
energy supply chains in a holistic and integrated way. Furthermore,
real-life industrial applications, which illustrate the applicability and
potential benefits of the integrated approach, are most welcome.
Tools which incorporate the theoretical developments, models
and methods are also welcome. Topics of interest include (but not limited
to):
· Simulation and optimization of energy
conversion systems
· Techniques for Energy savings in the process
industries
· Environmental impact and
sustainability of energy systems
· Carbon Capture and Storage
· Renewable recourses modelling and
optimization
· Biorefinery supply chains
· Fuel Cell (PEM, SOFC) systems
· Polygeneration energy systems
· Urban Energy Systems
· Energy storage systems
· Modelling and optimisation of
heat pumps, refrigeration and air conditioning systems
· The Hydrogen Economy (production,
distribution and storage)
· Integrated oil and gas production
· Other energy efficient and clean
technologies (combustion, etc)
· Applications and tools for industrial
and educational purposes
The deadline for submission of manuscripts is
Friday 22 October 2010 with expected publication date in mid 2011. The
website for submission to this special issue will formally open by 15 November
2010 http://ees.elsevier.com/cace/).
