Smart Chemical Engineering (SCE) is announcing a Call for Papers for the topic “Artificial Intelligence for Chemical Product Engineering: From Process Regulation to Product Customization”.

Chemical engineering has evolved from traditional chemical process engineering toward a new era that integrates process and product engineering, with the goal of precisely customizing chemical products. Artificial intelligence (AI) is deeply permeating all aspects of chemical engineering, with applications extending beyond individual unit operations (e.g., separation and reaction) to integrated processes/systems, thereby advancing optimization and regulation of processes and the targeted customization of high-performance products. Smart Chemical Engineering (SCE) hereby announces this Call for Papers, to reflect the deep integration trend between AI and chemical engineering, as well as to highlight AI’s pivotal role in driving the shift from process-oriented to product-oriented in chemical engineering. We sincerely invite scholars worldwide to contribute pioneering findings that showcase frontier advances in AI-empowered chemical product engineering.

We welcome original research articles, reviews and perspectives that explore the applications and breakthroughs of machine learning and other artificial intelligence technologies in the innovation development of chemical product engineering.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Correlation Mechanism of "Process Conditions-Product Structure-Performance" in AI-based Chemical Product Engineering
• AI-driven Multi-Objective Process Optimization, Regulation, and System Integration Focusing on Product Structure and Performance
• AI-assisted Multi-dimensional Regulation Mechanism and Action Principle for Chemical Products
• Core Theories, Key Methods and Innovations Algorithms of Artificial Intelligence for Chemical Product Engineering

Keywords: artificial intelligence; machine learning; chemical product engineering; chemical process engineering; fundamental mechanism
