The Advanced Optimization for Chemical and Biochemical Processes course was organized by Technical University of Denmark (DTU) the first two weeks of June 2019. The course was divided into two modules – Optimization in Biochemical Processes and Practical Optimization Techniques & Tools. The first served as an introduction to optimization and presented basic types of optimization problems, while the second covered different problem classes that can occur and presented algorithmic and modelling tricks to deal with them.

Dr Balázs Dávid attended the course and said: “The course offered a deeper insight into biochemical processes, and this knowledge will be helpful in the future when similar optimization problems arise in InnoRenew CoE projects,” said Dr Dávid.
