30th European Symposium on Computer Aided Chemical Engineering, Volume 47 contains the papers presented at the 30th European Symposium of Computer Aided Process Engineering (ESCAPE) event held in Milan, Italy, May 24-27, 2020. It is a valuable resource for chemical engineers, chemical process engineers, researchers in industry and academia, students, and consultants for chemical industries.

Sauro Pierucci is president and former vice president of AIDIC Servizi Srl, and a former professor in Chemical Engineering at CMIC Politecnico di Milano, where he also graduated in Chemical Engineering in 1969. He was member of EFCE (European Federation of Chemical Engineering) executive board until 2010. He has edited several international publications and is currently the editor-in-chief of the Chemical Engineering Transactions Journal, published by AIDIC, and the author of more than 200 scientific publications. In 2017, he was awarded by “the Dieter Behrens Medal” from EFCE.

Flavio Manenti (Dipartimento di Chimica, Materiali e Ingegneria Chimica, Politecnico di Milano) is experienced in chemical process simulations for design and operational purposes. He developed AG2S™ technology for thermal conversion of CO2 and codeveloped BzzMath library. He is the author of peer-reviewed papers and books on the topic and is the President of the Computer Aided Process Engineering (CAPE) Working Party at the European Federation of Chemical Engineering.

Giulia Bozzano is professor of Transport phenomena at CMIC Dept. “Giulio Natta” of Politecnico di Milano, Italy, Centre For Sustainable Process Engineering Reserach (SuPER), and secretary of CAPE Working Party of The European Federation Of Chemical Engineers (EFCE). She has authored 100+ papers indexed by main databases and filed patents and models applied on many industrial applications especially in the area of steam and thermal cracking of hydrocarbons and ammonia and methanol synthesis. She supervises M.Sc/Ph.D. students each year and she has led industrial and public projects on biomass treatment and biorefineries. Her research activity is associated to contracts with industry and public financing and faces with a wide variety of problems related to transport phenomena, reactor and kinetic modeling, process system engineering.

Davide Manca received the M.Sc. in 1990 and the PhD in 1994, both on “Chemical Engineering” at Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI, Italy). He is professor of Process Systems Engineering and head of the PSE-Lab at POLIMI since 2002.

He is (co)author of more than 210 peer-reviewed publications on international journals and conferences with a few book chapters.

In more than twenty years of academic employment, he conjugated research activity

and industrial advice to make these worlds better interact and get benefit from their mutual collaboration. At the basis of Davide’s research is the modeling activity that has the quantification of what is analyzed as the final target. Design, simulation, control, optimization, and assessment are the main features that use computer algorithms and methods to produce the quantification of phenomena, processes, and plants.

Davide has taught Numerical Calculus, Dynamics and Control of Chemical Processes,

Process Systems Engineering. He has been the supervisor of tens of students involved in the bachelor, master, and PhD degrees.

He was founder and director of R&D and Engineering department at Virthualis, a spin- off company of POLIMI, working on operator training simulation in 3D immersive virtual environments.

Under his direction, PSE Lab has worked on a number of European and Italian research projects with a fruitful collaboration with international universities and companies.
