Abstract(s)

Economic pressure and the need to target more competitive levels drive organizations to invest in efficient methodologies to get solutions able to provide clear advantages in a very demanding market. In this scenario, statistical approaches emerge as valuable tools to be used in the chemical process industry. Indeed, the chemical industry uses a wide set of statistical methodologies, ranging from descriptive approaches to complex optimization topics such as Design of Experiments (DoE), always targeting safer, more repeatable and profitable solutions.
