Technology?s simulation tools, such as Aspen Plus, HYSYS,
and Aspen Dynamics, include comprehensive unit operation
model libraries that have been used to successfully simulate
thousands of processes. While these models provide significant
value, they cannot always capture proprietary company knowledge
or the latest published innovations.
Aspen Custom Modeler enables users to quickly create custom models to incorporate their companies? unique expertise and knowledge, enabling them to fully leverage the benefits of process simulation throughout their company. Aspen Dynamics complements the steady-state simulation capabilities of Aspen Plus and delivers the benefits of dynamic modeling to the Petrochemicals, Chemicals, and Specialty Chemicals industries throughout plant operation and engineering organizations. The Aspen Icarus technology underlying Aspen IPE is the industry standard for project and process evaluation. Unlike other approaches, the technology does not rely on capacity factored curves for equipment pricing, nor does it rely on factors to estimate installation quantities and installed cost from bare equipment. It follows a unique approach where equipment, with associated plant bulks, is represented by comprehensive design-based installation models. Aspen Plus solves the critical engineering
and operating problems that arise throughout the lifecycle
of a chemical process, such as designing a new process,
troubleshooting a process unit or optimizing operations
of a full process like an Acrylic Acid plant. The process
simulation capabilities of Aspen Plus enables engineers
to predict the behavior of a process using basic engineering
relationships such as mass and energy balances, phase and
chemical equilibrium, and reaction kinetics. With reliable
thermodynamic data, realistic operating conditions and the
rigorous Aspen Plus equipment models, they can simulate
actual plant behavior. |
