Digitalization is an imperative in today’s volatile environment where a new generation of younger, inexperienced operators bring increased risk. The process industries, in particular, need new ways to help operators navigate the growing complexity that comes with the job. Innovations in process modeling, 3D visualization and digital twin deployment enable operators to practice their skills digitally in identifying and responding to potential issues, mitigating risk and optimizing performance.

While most chemical companies have sustainability initiatives in place with varying reliance on digital technologies to achieve these goals, challenges remain. What are the key enablers to eliminate emissions and waste, extend material use and regenerate natural systems? How do new innovations accelerate this effort?

Sustainability remains top-of-mind for most executives as they work to balance environmental concerns with business performance. Digital solutions have emerged as a key enabler to help companies make progress toward their sustainability goals.

Los procesos complejos presentan un desafío para las operaciones de refinación.
