Evonik Industries uses SolidSim for the specific purpose of designing solids processes |
|
Simulation programs that perform thermal and mass balancing in complex plant networks are now a standard tool in the field of fluid processes. Thanks to flow sheeting methods and the drag-and-drop functionality offered by these programs, time-consuming lab-scale and pilot-scale experiments can be reduced to a minimum. Solid processes, in contrast, are based on distributed state functions of great mathematical complexity and in such cases the limits of flow sheeting methods are exposed. In many cases, systems of equations are developed in Excel, but these tend to be impenetrable to anyone not involved in their development. However, these difficulties can now be eliminated thanks to the simulation software SolidSim [...] Evonik’s Process Technology unit (VT) [...] is now using the software for the specific purpose of designing solid processes.

Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH simulates fluidized bed spray granulation pilot plant GF/ProCell 25 with SolidSim. |
|
[...] Nowadays, software tools for the flowsheet simulation of industrial processes are commonly used for design, simulation, balancing, troubleshooting and optimization purposes. However, the applications normally are restricted to fluid processes, since the established simulation systems are not able to describe bulk solids in an adequate way. In order to fill this gap, the flowsheet simulation system SolidSim has been developed with a special focus on the description of bulk solids. [...] In this contribution the flowsheet simulation tool SolidSim is used to model a fluidized bed granulation with an external classification and grinding circuit Read more... |

BASF SE successfully verifies application of the new flowsheet simulator SolidSim to drying processes. |
|
[...] first experiences of BASF SE with SolidSim and its application to a drying process optimization study. The drying kinetic parameters were obtained by lab experiments. The simulation model itself was trained based on plant measurements and subsequently used to investigate and evaluate different scenarios to increase the plant capacity.

Meet SolidSim at the POWTECH 2011 |
|
Get to know our new and innovative system for modeling, simulation and optimization of complex solids processes We would like to welcome you between October 11th to 13th in Nuernberg/Germany during the POWTECH 2011 at our booth 8-332 in hall 8. The current economical situation requires new and cost-effective solutions for the planning, design and optimization of production processes. Production plants have to be developed in short time frame. Changing markets require quick adaptation. Energy efficiency and product quality are in focus. For fluid processes these task are addressed successfully using process simulation systems. SolidSim allows you to apply the established methods to processes in which solids are involved: Process modeling and simulation allowing for process optimization of complex solids processes.

Scale up and processing of powders using flowsheet modelling Tuesday 13 September 2011. University College London, WC1E 7JE
This one day workshop will cover scale-up and powder processing where the application and case studies will be demonstrated using process flowsheet modelling and simulation. The workshop is targeting an audience interested in design, optimisation and control of powder processes with the objective to bridge the gap between fundamental understanding and real scale operations. The unit operation and flowsheet models will be based on:
- mass and energy balances
- changes in particle size distribution
- changes in composition levels
- advanced analytical measures and process control, and
- may include scale up theory Register now... |
