Process Engineering for Sustainable Systems (ProcESS) KU Leuven
The Process Engineering for Sustainable Systems (ProcESS) section is dedicated to contribute to sustainable chemical processing by
- developing intensified and integrated flow sheets
- using continuous reactors and separators
- with alternative energy forms.
Process intensification and integration are key to the overall approach of our research as we aim at the design of new unit processes as well as their ...

Process Engineering for Sustainable Systems Section KU Leuven
In this group physico-chemical and chemical thermodynamic principles, proces technology and methods of analytical chemistry are used in studies related to environmental problems. Research topics are: a. Physico-chemical treatment of process water, drinking water and wastewater and of solvent streams by the use of membrane processes. Currently mainly nanofiltration and pervaporation are studied (also in hybrid processes e.g. with ...
