About The Workshop
This workshop is aimed at providing to the working professionals and academicians with the platform to enhance their process knowledge by way of modeling and simulation of the process under study. Such understanding will further help them to predict performance of the process, energy requirement and pollution load. This workshop will primarily focus on concepts in process modeling & simulation and hands-on training of Aspen Plus process simulation software.
Aspen Plus is advanced process simulation software used by the bulk, fine, specialty, and biochemical industries, as well as the polymer industry for the design, operation, and optimization of safe, profitable manufacturing facilities. Aspen Plus enables users to:
-
Optimize processing capacity and operating conditions,
-
Improve equipment design and performance,
-
Identify energy savings opportunities and reduce environmental emissions,
-
Reduce costs and improve product quality,
-
Perform economic evaluation to realize savings in the process design.
