As all companies have been challenged by the current economic and health crisis, the successful recovery requires a new view toward future development and growth with metrics that consider broad and more long-term goals. Featured in Hydrocarbon Processing, AspenTech’s Paige Morse shares considerations for building future resiliency that center around digitalization.

The 2015 Paris Agreement and other international climate change accords have helped raise global awareness of the need for countries to take urgent action to combat climate change. As companies continue to focus on sustainability, a common theme is taking shape around the role of digitalization as a key enabler. In fact, a recent ARC Advisory Group survey revealed that 75% of respondents rated digital transformation as highly important for achieving sustainability goals.

2015年《巴黎协定》和其他国际气候变化协定有助于提高全球对各国需要采取紧急行动应对气候变化的认识。随着企业继续关注可持续性，围绕数字化作为关键推动因素的作用，一个共同的主题正在形成。事实上，ARC咨询集团最近的一项调查显示，75%的受访者认为数字化转型对于实现可持续发展目标非常重要。

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.

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?

Optimal heat exchanger design is vital for the efficient operation of any process plant. The integration between heat exchanger design and rating software, Aspen EDR, and the process simulators Aspen HYSYS® or Aspen Plus® enables engineers to design heat exchangers best suited to their processes. View this webinar to learn best practices on designing heat exchangers!

Fouling of heat exchangers causes excessive energy consumption, large pressure loss and sometimes process outages. Inability to directly measure fouling levels for operating units compounds the problem. Learn how the advanced plant digital twin solutions from Aspen Technology enable tracking of heat exchanger fouling levels both online and offline.

Optimizing the operations of the integrated unit comprised of the crude distillation column and the crude preheat train has been a challenge for most refineries, given the difficulty in analyzing the unit as a whole. However, with the ‘equation-oriented’ solver technology in Aspen HYSYS, refineries can build a robust integrated model of their crude distillation column and pre-heat train network. Learn how to employ these advanced capabilities and improve your CDU operations today.
