This project aims to develop optimization and control strategies based on data from an industrial process of polypropylene production operated by Slovnaft
company in Slovakia. The objective is to maximize profits while improving
safety and quality control. Two institutions will lead the project in the
framework of a dual (cotutelle) Ph.D. thesis between École Nationale Supérieure
des Industries Chimiques at the University of Lorraine in Nancy, and the Faculty of
Chemical and Food Technology at Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. The
work will be carried out in close cooperation with the petrochemical refinery
located in Bratislava.
