Separation technology is the key in the chemical production process, and it is related to the quality and economic benefits of chemical products. Based on the artificial intelligence technology (AIT), in this paper, the synthesis problems in the separation process of the chemical production process was deeply discussed to realizes the computerization of the separation process. Besides, the case analysis was conducted. The research results show that the chemical separation process has validity, integrity and intuitive rationality. The use of AIT to develop intelligent program system can realize the smart selection of separation method, mass separating agent and separation device, etc. for the given separation problem. It can also make soring of separation points for the separation problem, provide the initial separation process, and independently implement the separation process tuning and separation integration.
