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?

BLOWDOWN Technology, developed by Dr. Graham Saville and Professor Stephen Richardson of Imperial College London, is now available in Aspen HYSYS, creating the optimal tool for completing depressurization projects. Join technical experts from AspenTech and BLOWDOWN Technology consultants to discover how this technology can ensure the accurate design of depressurization systems that’s vital for safe operations.

The Dow Chemical Company has been leveraging Aspen Plant SchedulerTM to improve customer service and maximize asset utilization for over 20 years. Dow’s internal center of excellence has found Aspen Plant Scheduler to be well suited to address the complex schedule requirements of many of its manufacturing sites. In this presentation, Dow will review how Aspen Plant Scheduler is enabling it to make better scheduling decisions for both its Coatings and Polyurethanes Businesses, optimizing raw material, production and loading rack scheduling against complex constraints and varying demand. Dow has deployed Aspen Plant Scheduler to over 50 plants and has plans to for additional global rollouts. Come hear how Dow Chemical leverages Aspen Plant Scheduler to improve its scheduling capability in support of changing market and customer expectations.

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.

Las compañías de refinación y de la Industria química tienen la tarea de cerrar la brecha entre el desempeño planeado y el real de la planta con el objetivo de mejorar los márgenes de ganancia. La tecnología de optimización dinámica aborda estos desafíos al integrar verticalmente la planeación, la programación y el control avanzado de procesos (APC) en lazo cerrado. Reúnase con la experta de AspenTech, Angélica Tequia, para una demostración en vivo y aprenda cómo Aspen GDOT le permite:

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.
