J. Tanskanen et al., PHENOMENON DRIVEN PROCESS DESIGN METHODOLOGY - FOCUS ON REACTIVE DISTILLATION, Computers & chemical engineering, 19, 1995, pp. 77-82
The phenomena oriented process design approach was introduced in a pre
vious paper [1]. In the present paper the approach is formalized into
what is called 'Phenomenon driven process design methodology'. The fea
tures of the methodology are demonstrated by applying the methodology
to the design of MTBE production process. The example aims at illustra
ting how creativity can be included in process design in a systematic
way.
