Micari Group

Sustainable process modelling group

Institute of Chemical Sciences and Engineering

School of Basic Sciences, EPFL

We are a computational group working on sustainable process design and optimisation.

We aim at devising energy-efficient and environmentally friendly separation processes. Our research focus is on gas separation processes and carbon capture.

We design processes by combining techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment.

This integrated approach allows to identify Pareto optimal solutions where costs and environmental impact indicators are simultaneously minimised.
