My main interest is information treatment in chemistry and chemical technology. Since 1993 I investigated many industrial and laboratory processes, and for all of them a weak point was the transformation of obtained data into mathematical dependencies. The use of polynomial relations gives minimum theoretical information about process. On the contrary, strong theoretical models are usually unstable and complicated.
The fundamental principles of my method are establishment of causal relations between different parameters. It allows getting maximum information both about internal structure of the observed objects and about right mathematical form of dependencies.
The fist test task for this technique was the obtaining of theoretical regulations from industrial data (NH3 oxidation process and HCN synthesis). But I never forget another theoretical problems such as thermodynamic and kinetic computations, prediction of reaction pathways, simulation of chemical processes and heterogeneous catalysis.
