As market conditions remain unpredictable, refineries turn to digital strategies to improve agility and stay competitive. Digital twin technology provides valuable insight into operations, enabling companies to run safely, effectively and with maximum margins.

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!

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®.

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?

As changing business conditions and an evolving workforce challenge companies in the process industries, AspenTech is working to meet their diverse training needs.

Leveraging process modeling tools is vital for accelerating the journey to market for new products, or for optimizing the margins of existing processes. Often, a single tool does not have the capabilities to model entire specialty and fine chemicals processes due to their complexities (batch or mixed batch/continuous, integrated fluid and solid sections, complex reactive systems). As a result, specialty and fine chemicals companies often rely almost exclusively on expensive experimentation and plant trials when innovating their products and processes. View this webinar to learn from AspenTech experts about best practices for end-to-end batch modeling in Aspen Plus.

Crude distillation units (CDUs) are one of the most critical units to a refinery’s profitability. This is a unique opportunity to learn directly from renowned expert Dr. Prakash Karpe (retired from leading U.S. refiner Phillips 66). Dr. Karpe has over 35-plus years of experience and has perfected the skill of leveraging advanced process simulation technology to implement practical improvements to refinery operation — saving millions of dollars. Learn how you can use Aspen HYSYS to improve your CDU operations and bring savings to your refinery.

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.
