Process industry is the pillar industry of China's national economy, at present, Shanghai and the Yangtze River Delta region has formed a petrochemical, iron and steel and biomedicine as the representative of the process industry clusters, is showing an increasingly powerful high-end industrial aggregation effect and leading function, but, under the impact of international trade barriers and the global epidemic, there are still some areas of the key technology by the neck and the risk of supply chain broken. However, under the impact of international trade barriers and the global epidemic, there is still the risk of key technologies being blocked and supply chains being broken in some areas. At a time when artificial intelligence has become the core engine of a new round of scientific and technological revolution, how can we fully release the enabling effect of artificial intelligence on process manufacturing and promote the high-quality development of China's process manufacturing industry?
