This whitepaper, Estimating Simulation Parameters for Batch Columns from Experimental Data, outlines a practical method for deriving key model parameters (such as heat losses, hold-up volumes, and stage efficiencies) directly from plant data. Using a lab-scale ethanol–water batch distillation column,…
An AI-driven digital twin has fundamentally altered the way new products are developed in the automotive sector Your product might be a game changer. But if it takes two years longer than your competitors to bring it to market, that’s…
Digital transformation promises growth, resilience and efficiency, but too often it fails to deliver. In fact, 70% of digital initiatives miss their goals because of poor planning, lack of alignment, and employee fatigue. This eBook, Getting It Right: Building a…
This new advanced temperature measurement technology delivers accuracy while saving you time and money associated with additional thermowell requirements. This white paper presents results of a direct comparison of non-invasive temperature measurements with classic measurements in a measuring medium, achieved…
The chlor-alkali process is a cornerstone of the chemical industry, but it presents significant challenges for instrumentation due to the highly corrosive and aggressive nature of its process and end products. Selecting the right flow measurement technology is critical for…
The following is a list of recently published books that may be relevant for professionals working in the chemical process industries (CPI). Process Safety Management. By Ian Sutton, Elsevier Press, 2025, 750 pages, $225.00. AI Essentials for Chemical Engineers:…
Process analytical technology (PAT) approaches allow continuous monitoring and real-time control of processes. Among the key monitoring technologies is Raman spectroscopy, which offers inline measurement that can reduce personnel time and sampling complexity The chemical industry faces new challenges with…
Even seasoned engineers can fall into the trap of trusting valve datasheets too much. In real chemical‑processing environments, “on paper” performance can fall short — especially when factors like backpressure, fluid phase, fire exposure, or piping layout are misunderstood. This…
