gPROMS Process is a next-generation Advanced Process Modelling environment for design and operation of high-performance process plants.
gPROMS Process is a true digital design tool, supporting the process development and design cycle from R&D experimentation through to commissioning. Models used for design can then be exported into the gPROMS Digital Applications Platform (gDAP) for implementation online as part of the automation system.
An integrated toolset for the process lifecycle
gPROMS Process combines industry-leading steady-state and dynamic models with all the power of the gPROMS equation-oriented modelling, analysis and optimization platform in an easy-to-use process flowsheeting environment.
True digital design capability
gPROMS Process is unique among process simulation tools in that it was designed from the ground up to support all aspects of the process lifecycle, from R&D to operations.
This includes a true digital design capability, enabling accelerated innovation, optimized process design and accurate quantification of technology risk.
With gPROMS Process you can:
Model
Industry-leading library models capture physics and chemistry to a high level of detail. If you need to, you can write your own custom models, or use hybrid data driven / first principles models to use the power of AI.
Validate
Sophisticated model validation capabilities allow you to incorporate laboratory and plant data into high-fidelity physics-based models, using industry-leading parameter estimation (including Bayesian) techniques.
Analyse
Global system analysis techniques make it possible to explore the process decision space rapidly and effectively, to determine the effect of variations and uncertainty on process KPIs and accurately quantify risk.
Optimize
Industry-leading mathematical optimization capabilities allow you to determine the optimal values for multiple design variables simultaneously, to arrive at truly optimized designs in the minimum time.
gPROMS Process models can be exported for implementation online within the gPROMS Digital Applications Platform (gDAP), for real-time monitoring, soft-sensing and real-time optimization applications coupled with plant data.
