    2 Optimization Techniques in Chemical Engineering

    Uploaded by

    Madhuri Gupta
    This document outlines the units covered in the course ECH 021: Optimization Techniques in Chemical Engineering. Unit I covers analytical methods for finding optimal solutions to unconstrained and constrained single and multi-variable problems. Unit II examines unidimensional search methods like Newton's method. Unit III introduces linear programming and simplex methods as well as multi-variable unconstrained optimization. Unit IV covers finite difference approximations and dynamic programming principles. The course recommends two textbooks on optimization of chemical processes and optimal design of process equipment.
