                 American Institute of Chemical Engineers
                            1998 Annual Meeting
                               November 1998
                           Miami Beach, Florida

         Sponsored by the Computing & Systems Technology Division

                   (Area 10a) Systems and Process Design

We  invite  papers that deal with methods for synthesis of chemical process
systems.   Topics  of  interest  include (but are not limited to) flowsheet
synthesis,  reaction path and reactor network synthesis, synthesis of novel
separation  schemes,  and integration of synthesis, design and control. The
methodologies  presented  may  involve  concepual  approaches, mathematical
programming  and  heuristic  strategies, among others.  Areas that have not
received  adequate  attention  in  traditional process synthesis literature
(such as environmental applications) are particularly encouraged.

A  one-page  abstract  and  a  proposal to present form should be submitted
electronically      by     March     15     via     the     AIChEWeb     at
http://www.aiche.org/docs/meetapp/programming/cfp.htm.  Copies will then be
sent  automatically  to  the  session chair and co-chair. Abstracts will be
reviewed anonymously and authors will be notified of the results by May 1.

Please note that the CAST division abstract submission deadline of March 15
is earlier than the general AIChE deadline of 4/1/98.
