gSOLIDS provides us with accurate models, optimal operating procedures, and ultimately a better likelihood that when we start up a new line it will work as planned.

gSOLIDS is a flowsheet simulation tool that allows users to quickly build flowsheets, validate against experimental data and optimise solids processes.

Details & target audience

This webinar will show how companies use gSOLIDS, a gPROMS platform software product, for process design and operational analysis, including activities such as equipment and recycle sizing, scale-up and design, process optimization, trouble-shooting and de-bottlenecking.

The webinar is aimed at technical management, scientists and process engineers from companies with solids processes: pharmaceuticals and consumer goods, fine chemicals, food, mining and other sectors.

Outline

gSOLIDS has an extensive model library of common unit operations for simple drag-and-drop use. You can also develop your own models or connect your existing proprietary models within a gSOLIDS flowsheet.

In this webinar you will learn how you can use gSOLIDS' extensive flowsheeting capabilities to:

  • reduce start-up time
  • increase throughput
  • size recycles
  • scale-up or size equipment
  • target and reduce experiments

The webinar will also demonstrate gSOLIDS' custom modelling capabilities. These can be used to:

  • develop high-fidelity models of proprietary unit operations
  • reduce model development time
  • integrate custom models into gSOLIDS flowsheets

The webinar will include a case study of a flowsheet developed to scale-up an impact milling operation with one of our industry partners.
