CACHE LRC - Product and Process Design Web Site 7 77 AIChE Student Contest Problems (1932-present) - installed on website by Bette Lawler – Nov. 2013 - installed on website by Bette Lawler – Nov. 2013 https://www.aiche.org/community/students/ student-design-competition/past-problems Bette reluctant to upload prize-winning Bette reluctant to upload prize-winning solutions – as professors may use problems solutions – as professors may use problems in their design courses. in their design courses. Recent years – many reports in PDF files posted – many downloads Reactivate Design Case Studies Task Force? Possibly consider these developments

8. CACHE LRC - Product and Process Design Web Site 8 Task Force might raise questions - Do contest problems track well the development of our profession? Commodity chemicals Unit operations Process simulation Specialty chemicals Batch processing Pharmaceuticals Product design : Any emphasis on: Molecular modeling? Electronic materials? Labs-on-a-chip, Microfluidics? Use of CFD?
