PSE provides high-fidelity predictive modelling software and associated model-based consulting services to our process industry customer base around the world.

High-fidelity predictive models are used as part of model-based engineering and model-based innovation approaches to optimise design and operation of processes and products, as well as accelerate innovation and reduce technology risk.

We help customers to realise millions of dollars in value by allowing them to take key design and operational decisions based on accurate process performance information.

gPROMS process simulation

is the world's leading advanced process modelling tool

Process modelling technology

PSE develops and markets the industry-leading gPROMS® modelling environment and a range of gPROMS family products built on the gPROMS platform.

gPROMS products are used to identify and create additional value in many different process application areas – for example, reaction engineering, separation, solids processing and safety – across virtually all the process sectors.

gPROMS allows us to improve the performance of industrial reactors using our catalysts significantly

We deal with complex subject matter but our mission is simple: to generate high-fidelity predictive information that can reliably be used to make commercial decisions that deliver bottom-line value.

For example, we provide the software that:

  • Procter & Gamble uses to design its surfactant plants
  • Toyota is using to design its next generation of fuel cell cars
  • Süd-Chemie uses to maximise its catalyst customers' methanol production.

Expertise – services & solutions

PSE Consulting – process design, process development and plant optimization

provides expert services to the
process industries

We also also provide expert Consulting services, applying novel model-based engineering approaches to deliver untapped value in existing processes, or to accelerate the design and enhance the economics of new processes.

Services include process design, new process development, plant optimisation and reactor design.

  • performing whole-plant optimisation during the design of a new Repsol HPPO process, improving the process economics by tens of milions of € per year

    • Typical activities include:

    We saved $1.5m on the cost of a single vessel
