Today, it’s more important than ever to perform rigorous optioneering to find the best solutions for improving process efficiency and asset flexibility. In this webinar, AspenTech’s experts will show how the new Aspen Multi-Case™ dramatically accelerates the evaluation of design and operating scenarios, provides visual tools for selecting the best alternatives and improves overall agility and collaboration across the engineering team.

Operations in the process industries are challenging due to the inherent complexities and lack of insights. Plant digital twin technology helps solve these challenges. Learn how Burns & McDonnell developed and deployed a plant digital twin of a refinery’s FCC unit using rigorous process simulation to:

How can you use historical data to improve batch quality, increase yield and reduce costs? Join Dr. John MacGregor, a foremost thought leader on multivariate analysis and founder of ProSensus, as he shares how Aspen ProMV helps you solve the most complex manufacturing problems. Discover key capabilities to help you:

The increasing pressure to reduce plant operating costs and maximize profitability can cause anxiety for any plant manager or process engineer. During this one-hour webinar, learn how SABIC took a collaborative approach to solving complex plant issues by using process models to support plant manufacturing and operations teams. By utilizing Aspen Plus® with Aspen Simulation Workbook (ASW), they enabled plant engineers and operators to benefit from the knowledge and insight gained using AspenTech software.

Another opportunity to learn from “Dr. Distillation” how refineries can better operate their VDUs, a challenging and critical unit for most plants. With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Prakash Karpe (retired from U.S. refiner Phillips 66) has perfected the skill of leveraging advanced process simulation technology to implement practical improvements to refinery operation — saving millions of dollars. Dr. Karpe will share best practices on improving VDU operations with Aspen HYSYS®.

Agile has traditionally been used for software product development, however, it can also be applied as a key enabler for supply chain transformation. Hexion, a global specialty chemical company, has applied Agile to improve supply chain processes, driven by Sales and Operations Execution (S&OE), across 45 global production sites.

El ensuciamiento de los intercambiadores de calor provoca un consumo excesivo de energía, gran pérdida de presión y, a veces, interrupciones en el proceso. La incapacidad de medir los niveles de ensuciamiento para las unidades operativas agrava el problema. Aprenda cómo las soluciones de Aspen Technology para gemelos digitales le ayudan a monitorear los niveles de ensuciamiento en los intercambiadores de calor.

Solving operational problems and making decisions requires experience and sound engineering know-how. While traditional rules-of-thumb and heuristic approaches can help, steps for improving operations remain unclear, processes grow too complex and operations are left suboptimal. By using Aspen HYSYS®, Aspen Online and plant data from a data historian such as InfoPlus.21®, you can quickly identify issues and find solutions. Discover how to achieve reliable operations with model-backed intelligence.

Crude Distillation Units (CDU) are one of the most critical units impacting a refinery’s profit margin. Refiners have found it challenging to optimize their CDU operations as the complexity of the unit has kept them from simulating the entire unit in one piece. However, with new ‘equation-oriented’ technology in Aspen HYSYS, refineries can build a robust integrated model of their crude distillation column and pre-heat train network. View this webinar and learn how you can improve your CDU operations today!

Complex processes present a challenge for refinery operations. The operational risks involved call for accurate analysis of plant behavior before making any changes to operations. Process simulation technology specialized in refining such as Aspen HYSYS Petroleum Refining® enables engineers to accurately simulate refinery operations to aid better decisions. Learn how you can leverage the latest technological innovations to make better operational decisions.
