In the realm of process engineering, the pursuit of sustainability is paramount. Traditional approaches can be time-consuming and often struggle to address modern environmental challenges effectively. This article explores the integration of generative AI, as a powerful tool to generate solution ideas and solve problems in process engineering using a Solution-Driven Approach (SDA). SDA applies nature-inspired principles to tackle intricate engineering challenges. In this study, generative AI is trained to understand and use the SDA patterns to suggest solutions to complex engineering challenges.
