Aspen Plus process simulation software

Despite the increasing demand for sustainable fuels and chemicals, the design and scale-up of bio-feedstock processing remain challenging issues. In any new process, it is essential to appropriately consider the complex atomic-level components of the feedstock and the methods for extracting, converting, and refining the desired products. While experimental research can elucidate some of these complexities, ultimately, digital solutions are necessary to scale up the process and assess its economic feasibility. **The Important Role of Digital Technology** - Characterization of Renewable Feedstocks - Biofeed Data Bank - Biodiesel Data Bank - Template Models for Vegetable Oil Processes - Modeling of Bioprocesses - Fermentation - Pyrolysis - Scale-up and Economic Evaluation of Bioprocesses For more details, please refer to the related catalog.

Nissan Chemical Corporation is considering modeling an ammonia plant and conducting a study on cost reduction, initially focusing on steam reforming. The company has struggled to accurately model processes and assets using existing rigorous reactor simulations. This requires temperature profiles of process fluids, and accurately estimating or measuring the temperature distribution within the reactor has been challenging. Due to such constraints in conventional models, the company wanted to try a different approach. Ultimately, they chose Aspen Hybrid Models and Aspen Plus based on first principles. 【Twice the speed】Build models that surpass conventional ones more quickly 【Up to 1%】Cost reduction rate achievable through optimization of steam input 【Improved accuracy and sustainability】Enhance predictive insights through the use of AI For more details, please refer to the related catalog.
