Abstract
This manuscript presents a course on optimization and process modeling,
designed for second-year Master's students in Pharmaceutical Process
Engineering. It follows the official program of the Process Optimization and
Modeling module and aims to provide students with a structured and practical
approach to these fundamental concepts.
The course is divided into two main chapters, each of which contains
different examples involving reflection or simple calculations based on
bibliographical data.. The first chapter focuses on process modeling and
simulation, introducing commonly used models in process engineering and
demonstrating their implementation using Excel and MATLAB. The second
chapter is dedicated to process optimization, presenting various techniques and
methodologies for solving optimization problems, both with and without
constraints.
This course material has been developed based on extensive teaching
experience and a thorough study of academic and technical resources, some of
which are not explicitly cited in the bibliography. It is designed to offer a clear and
comprehensive understanding of process modeling and optimization, providing
students with both theoretical foundations and practical applications.
We hope that this manuscript will serve as a valuable learning resource,
offering a concise yet effective alternative to traditional textbooks. May it assist
students in mastering these essential concepts and applying them successfully in
their academic and professional careers.
