Process simulation with Aspen Plus®

Scale-up and evaluation of technical innovations at a commercially viable scale within a simulation environment is crucial for advancing new value chains into practical business concepts. Rise experts can help you with Aspen Plus® simulation tool.

Aspen Plus® is a commercial simulation platform used to develop comprehensive value chains, aiding in the assessment of plant process performance.​ RISE experts within process simulation and evaluation can support actors in society and business within biorefinery, carbon capture and storage/utilization, and circular economy areas. Our services include:

• scale-up and evaluation of lab- or pilot- configurations to commercially relevant scale​
• design and/or integration of new value chains in existing industrial complexes, such as conversion of biomass and waste to value-added chemicals and fuels via biochemical processes (for example, organosolv ethanol) and thermo-chemical processes (for examples, gasification, pyrolysis, hydrothermal liquefaction)​
• standalone and/or integrated assessments of process performance, such as material and energy balances​
• evaluation of relevant economic and environmental performance indicators​
• supporting digitalization and optimization of existing processes in simulation environments ​
• feasibility assessments for re-configuration of existing processes to fit into new standards and policies with no or minimal impact to the core business​
• integration and optimization of biorefinery concepts in forest industries, such as optimization of feedstock, utilities and chemicals usage​
