Frequent changes in refinery operating conditions cause planning models to fall out of sync with actual conditions, making them less reliable. At the same time, updating these models is complex, often forcing refineries to turn to expensive third-party consultants.

Maximizing energy efficiency and minimizing CO2 emissions remain critical goals for the process industries. Now you can leverage pinch technology from within the process simulation environment to identify opportunities to significantly lower energy use and reduce your carbon footprint.

Global hydrogen demand is forecast to increase dramatically to 2050. Dozens of nations around the world have established hydrogen roadmaps or policies that are fueling the adoption of hydrogen that will help adhere to net-zero policies. To adhere to these policies, a significant amount of capital investment will be needed to satisfy increasing hydrogen demand.

Operational teams and engineers understand their processes intimately, yet converting that expertise into actionable operational and advanced process control (APC) strategies can be complex. Moreover, a lack of understanding of APC actions often leads to constrained APC controllers, and in some cases, to APC being disabled altogether, resulting in lost benefits.

Shell recently completed a pilot evaluation of Aspen Unified Planning™ (AUP) and Aspen Unified Scheduling™ (AUS) at the Pernis and Moerdijk manufacturing complexes. The objective of the project was to simplify and streamline the deployment of newer software versions to enhance the efficiency and usability of its planning and scheduling tools.

AspenTech can optimize CAPEX and OPEX with heat exchanger design software modeling within the larger process using a comprehensive set of rigorous HX models.

Jamaica Public Service Company (JPS) navigated the devastating impact of Category 5 Hurricane Melissa, the strongest hurricane on record in the Atlantic, with AspenTech Digital Grid Management (DGM).

Aspen InfoPlus.21 historian database software for industrial plant operations for real-time data collection, analysis & traceability to boost efficiency.

Discover how Ameren is accelerating its Grid of the Future strategy by transforming how it manages electrical network data. As manual, time-intensive data transfers between GIS and ADMS became more complex, the utility identified an opportunity to enhance how it maintains accurate, up-to-date models for advanced grid operations.

Optimal design and operation of heat exchangers (HX) are critical for reducing energy usage, lowering emissions and ensuring proper plant performance.
