Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...

A‐optimal model‐based design of experiments for processes with uncertain inputs
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Model‐based design of experiments (MBDoE) techniques are tools for selecting experimental conditions that enable accurate parameter estimation for mechanistic models. Most MBDoE approaches assume that the selected experimental conditions will be implemented perfectly, without uncertainties in the independent variables.

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Spouted bed drying of mango peels with colloidal SiO2 and corn starch produces a free‐flowing powder with reduced agglomeration, increased drying yield, and preserved antioxidant and polyphenol content. Abstract The production of polyphenol‐rich powders is a promising strategy for valorizing agro‐industrial byproducts. This study evaluated drying yield,

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Crystallization is the final stage in lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH · H2O) production, and antisolvent crystallization offers a lower‐energy route compared with evaporative methods. In this study, we investigated bench‐scale ethanol‐based antisolvent crystallization of LiOH · H2O, and identified the significant impact parameter via a ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were
