Abstract

A considerable number of studies have been performed and are ongoing for enhancing cleaner production, process integration and also process intensification. These topics reflect some of the most important challenges of our society and have been targeted in this journal. Considerable research effort has been devoted to addressing process integration and process intensification as well as environmentally friendlier production. This article has made an attempt to provide a short assessment of the current state-of-art covered in the recent publications.
