In today’s market, thriving in the mining industry means exploring new strategies for growth in the digital transformation era. Mining executives are seeking leading experts to help mitigate risk and lower cost. The Northern Miner recently sat down with AspenTech to discuss best practices of how a true machine learning solution has the power to transform mining.

Sustainability is emerging as a critical business topic, as companies focus resources toward lowering emissions, waste and energy use in their production process. In this article, Paige Morse, Chemicals Industry Marketing Director, shares how sustainability affects four key areas within a processing plant and how digital transformation supports sustainability efforts through efficiency improvements.

“We have been able to generate a lot of value at our plants: minimizing changeovers, reducing inventory because of a better sequence plan, and gaining better visibility” – William Duty, Director of Momentive’s Supply Chain Center of Excellence

To be a leading 'player' today's specialty chemicals environment, overcoming these challenges is crucial to staying competitive and ensuring the entire supply chain is optimized.

See how you can use Aspen Technology solutions to develop a refinery wide process model that would enable refinery process engineers to evaluate the economic impact of operational changes and help planners achieve a more accurate assessment of profit margins.

In this article, Robert Golightly explains the limitations of traditional maintenance practices and how new advancements in predictive maintenance are pushing assets and equipment to the limits of performance. Learn how today's industry leaders are using low-touch machine learning to extract value from design and operations data to predict when and where failures will occur.

To achieve operational excellence, process manufacturers must quickly and systematically address the root causes of asset reliability problems, which include inadequate operating procedures, poor design, and improper scheduling of production.

See how refineries can keep their profit margins high by maintaining their planning models up to date, in the face of changing operating conditions, using capabilities built in Aspen HYSYS.

As operators seek ongoing investment and replacement of assets for the stability of hydrocarbon markets, what is next in LNG and beyond? How do firms rise to the top of the class in terms of returns on exploration investment, instead of bottom of the barrel? This article talks about how Industry leaders bring all aspects of an asset development into concurrency—from exploration to reservoir studies to engineering design to construction and operation—and the use of digitalization, technology and big data.

To achieve operational excellence, process manufacturers must quickly and systematically address the root causes of asset reliability problems, which include inadequate operating procedures, poor design, and improper scheduling of production.
