Twenty-Four Years of PRES Conferences: Recent Past, Present and Future-Process Integration Towards Sustainability

This paper reviews the Process Integration (PI) development related to the recent Conferences on Process Integration for Energy Saving and Pollution Reduction (PRES conferences) and makes suggestions for the future growth of PI branching out in the future. The conference history is now close to a qu...
