Chemical Process Design (CPD) is an international journal covering general fields of chemical engineering. Chemical Process Design (CPD) is a refereed international journal that presents to new developments in the application of process planning and scheduling, developing systematic design, and optimization models and systems technology to chemical engineering problems. No fee is charged from the authors during the submission, evaluation, and publication process. 

The scope of the journal includes the following:

• Application of uncertainty
• Novel mathematical programming approaches
• Optimization
• Process synthesis
• Process simulation
• Process planning and scheduling
• Process dynamics, control, and monitoring
• Process intensification
• Soft sensor design
• Process integration
• Chemical and petrochemical plant design
