Bio-based feedstocks play an important role in creating a circular economy. Making biofuel or chemicals from biofeedstocks typically has a lower carbon footprint than the fossil fuel-based processes. Therefore, transforming biofeedstocks is considered as one of the energy transition pillars.

Capital project owners need to optimize their CAPEX spending throughout the lifecycle of their projects, from design to operations.

Leading asset-intensive companies are using prescriptive maintenance—powered by AI and machine learning—to unlock the value and productivity lying uncaptured in assets. Using a scalable, easy to implement prescriptive maintenance solution, companies can improve the accuracy of failure detection, increase the advance notification period of asset downtime events and reduce maintenance spend.

As sustainability targets drive the energy industry towards a net zero future and energy security concerns intensify, companies are challenged to meet these competing demands within financial and workforce restraints. Owners and EPCs must cater to short-term energy demands while simultaneously positioning themselves for the long-term energy transition projects gaining traction.

Chemical manufacturers are facing a dual challenge with global demand increasing. On one hand, chemical production has to increase to address the growing demands of a growing global population. On the other hand, the industry is facing a climate and an environmental crisis.

Discover how to predict equipment breakdowns and perform prescriptive maintenance using a new approach to asset performance management. In this white paper, learn how nine early adopters of prescriptive analytics have reduced unplanned downtime and improved asset reliability. Download the paper to read real stories about the bottom-line results that have been achieved—in as little as 2 ½ weeks.

Whether particles are being formed, reduced in size, enlarged, participating in reactions, or just being separated from a fluid stream, ignoring or poorly modeling the solids processing steps may lead to lost opportunities, including cost reductions and quality improvements. The main challenges that arise when optimizing or troubleshooting a solids process include inefficient designs due to separate modeling of fluids and solids sections, overdesign of equipment, high-energy demands, reduced yields and quality variability. Modeling the solids section of a process is important for many common processes including specialty chemicals, agrochemicals, metals and mining, pharmaceuticals, biofuels and more. This paper describes the approach for incorporating granular solids and the corresponding solids processing steps when modeling processes.
