Abstract

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have emerged as powerful tools in process engineering for modeling, control, and optimization of complex industrial processes. This article reviews the application of ANNs in various domains of process engineering, including chemical reactors, separation processes, and production systems. We highlight the capabilities of ANNs in predicting nonlinear behaviors, fault detection, and performance enhancement in engineering processes. The study emphasizes recent advancements in ANN architectures, hybrid models, and their integration with other computational techniques. Furthermore, practical implementations in Pakistani industries are discussed to showcase local advancements. The article concludes with challenges and future prospects for the deployment of ANN-based solutions in process engineering.
