11-12 October 1999

Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)

Trondheim, Norway

The course is initiated and sponsored by the Nordic Energy Research Program on Process Integration.

The course is offered to Ph.D. students in Nordic countries and other interested. By "other interested" we have mainly in mind participation from the industry in the Nordic countries. Several of the speakers participate in an European project (CAPE.NET) and the course is also a "technology transfer" event for this project.

The course consists of survey lectures as well as shorter lectures and special issues and case studies. The objective of the course is to give an overview of the area. The speakers are all recognized experts in their fields. We believe this should be a very worthwhile event to attend.

There may later be more specific and detailed courses on selected topics.

Organized by: PROST group, Department of Chemical Engineering, NTNU, N-7491 Trondheim
