An International Journal of Computer Applications in Chemical Engineering

Computers & Chemical Engineering is primarily a journal of record for new developments in the application of computing and systems technology to chemical engineering problems. Several major areas of study are represented in the journal, including:

• Modeling, numerical analysis and simulation
• Mathematical programming (optimization)
• Cyberinfrastructure, informatics and intelligent systems
• Process and product synthesis/design
• Process dynamics, control and monitoring
• Abnormal events management and process safety
• Plant operations, integration, planning/scheduling and supply chain
• Enterprise-wide management and technology-driven policy making
• Domain applications (molecular, biological, pharmaceutical, food, energy, and environmental systems engineering)

Also, general papers on process systems engineering are welcome as well as emerging new areas and topics not covered above.

Articles published cover different aspects of the application of process systems engineering to one or more of the general areas listed above, including new applications of established methods, comparisons of alternative methodologies, descriptions of state-of-the-art industrial applications and significant developments in computing targeted at training/education. Reports of software implementation must feature novel uses of state-of-the-art computing technologies. Computers & Chemical Engineering publishes full-length articles, perspective papers, journal reviews, short notes and letters to the editor.

Online article submission now available via: https://www.editorialmanager.com/CACE/default.aspx.

Comments and Proposals: We are interested in receiving comttpments/feedback on this and our other journals and welcome publication proposals for books, electronic products, new journals and co-operation for existing journals.

Special Issue on International Conference on AI and Materials for Sustainability (AIMS-2025)
截稿日期: 2026-06-01

The International Conference on AI and Materials for Sustainability (AIMS-2025) is strategically focused on the innovations of AI and Materials for sustainability within the Water-Energy-Climate nexus. The solutions to these interconnected challenges are fundamentally rooted in Process Systems Engineering. AIMS-2025 envisages bringing researchers from all over the world, including the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East & North Africa (MENA) region, to a single platform to deliberate on the most recent and most significant developments related to the pressing global sustainability challenges. The purpose of this Special Issue is to convey these developments to the broader community through invited full-length contributions.
