Quantum Chemistry Promises to Advance AspenTech Process Optimization
This paper explains how AspenTech and Microsoft are collaborating to design a quantum chemistry workflow.
With the introduction of Microsoft Azure Quantum Elements in mid-2023, Microsoft and AspenTech announced a collaboration aimed at exploring avenues to take advantage of the combined strengths of AQE and Aspen Properties. Microsoft and AspenTech believe that Azure Quantum Elements could be leveraged to develop a quantum chemistry workflow within Aspen Properties that could be extremely powerful and provide a unique new approach for estimating the thermodynamic properties for new molecules that are not currently available in the Aspen Properties database.
