Process Design Center, Prosyn® Membranes

Over the past decades, interest in membranes has increased because of their separation performance and generally lower energy requirements. However, with at least 20,000 available membranes around the world, it is virtually impossible to select the most suitable one. PROSYN® Membranes leverage human and artificial intelligence to address this challenge by providing the fast and structured selection and design of cost-effective membrane processes.

PDC is leading a project for the further development of the artificial intelligence knowledge-based system, PROSYN® Membranes, involving leading R&D partners, membrane suppliers, and industrial end-users. This project is executed with a Top Sector Energy subsidy from the Netherlands Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate under No. TEEI117002.

 

prosyn® Membranes
will be the world’s first artificial intelligence knowledge-based system for the selection and design of membrane separation processes
