Parameter Classes for Chromatographic Separations

The models presented in Section 6.2 contain sets of independent and dependent parameters. Designing a chromatographic process starts with selecting the chromatographic system (Chapter 3) and, subsequently, the kind of the chromatographic process as well as the hardware required to realize it (Chapters 4 and 5). These selections lead to the specification of the design parameters  

Various design parameters specify the chromatographic plant. Hereby geometrical design parameters are typically also objects of optimization, if no already existing plants are used for the separation.
