In recent years, advancements in process simulation technology have brought attention to "process digital twins." This webinar will introduce an overview of process digital twins based on the latest process simulation technologies. We invite you to participate. A process digital twin is a technology that enables real-time monitoring, analysis, and optimization by digitally reproducing manufacturing processes and equipment from the real world. As application examples, we will present successful cases of process digital twins in industries such as manufacturing and energy. This will clarify how digital twins can significantly enhance a company's productivity and efficiency, from visualizing the entire production line to improving operational management. Process digital twins are positioned as a core element of digital transformation (DX) in manufacturing. They are also essential technologies for increasing productivity while minimizing environmental impact. By realizing sustainable production processes that leverage digital twins, companies can respond flexibly and swiftly to market changes, maintain and enhance their competitiveness, and take an important step towards achieving carbon neutrality.

CO2 separation and capture technology has become an essential technology for achieving a carbon-neutral society. This includes various technologies such as physical and chemical absorption methods, solid absorption methods, and membrane separation methods. The simulation technology for CO2 capture processes quantitatively evaluates the thermal and material balances of the entire system, clarifying the impact of material performance on the system. This enables the design and optimization of efficient and cost-effective CO2 capture systems. In this webinar, we will introduce CO2 capture simulation technology based on sample models from Aspen Plus and Aspen Custom Modeler. [We will introduce the following demos and features] ● Thermodynamic property modeling of amine solutions ● Introduction to CO2 absorption processes using MEA ● Introduction to CO2 separation processes using membranes ● Introduction to CO2 separation processes using pressure swing adsorption (PSA)

Webinar Content: "Introduction to Process Simulation Technology Including Bio-derived Raw Materials and Bio-reactions" As part of the technological development aimed at achieving a carbon-neutral society, the chemical industry is considering the transition to low-carbon raw materials such as bio-derived materials. Additionally, by applying biosciences utilized in various fields such as healthcare, agriculture, forestry, livestock, and fisheries, there is potential to shift from traditional chemical reaction processes that require high temperature and pressure to more environmentally friendly bioprocesses. In this session, we will introduce how to utilize the newly added bio-derived raw material database in Aspen Plus V14 and how to handle bio-reaction (biochemical reaction) processes. We will also present efficient methods for conducting feasibility studies and process design for bioprocesses, which have seen rapidly increasing demand recently. [We will introduce the following demos and features] ● Bio-derived raw material database ● Bio-reactions (biochemical reactions) ● Economic evaluation of bioprocesses ● Case studies using sample files
