The gPROMS Advanced Model Library for Fixed-Bed Catalytic Reactors (AML:FBCR) is a library of high-fidelity modelling components for modelling of tubular, multitubular and other fixed-bed reactors.

It is used to construct multiscale high-fidelity predictive models capable of representing virtually any fixed-bed reactor configuration and validated with laboratory and/or plant data, to provide accurate information for support of design and operational decisions.

The many benefits of applying high-fidelity models include improved reactor design, improved operations – with operating conditions optimised to maximise catalyst life – and the potential to design, screen and rank catalyst in a realistic "catalyst test bed".

Details & target audience

This webinar will show companies with fixed-bed catalytic reactors how model-based engineering technology based on high-fidelity reactor models can be used to optimise design and operations and manage the technology risk associated with new processes.

It is aimed at technical management, reaction engineers and R&D specialists from companies designing or operating fixed-bed catalytic reactors.

Outline

The gPROMS AML:FBCR helps us to minimise development risks and reduce time between R&D, process development and plant construction
