Simulanis Solutions delivers technical and professional-development services in the specialized ield of Process Engineering. With a team of well-quali ied trainers
having quality experience of working with the process engineering departments of FTSE-100 multinational companies, we deliver cutting-edge professional
development services which focus on implementing industry's leading practices.
One of our lagship course bouquets, Process Simulation, is designed for industry professionals and students who intend to become conversant with the techniques
involved in the design and engineering of an integrated process, using commercially available simulation software. This course will empower you to con idently
build and troubleshoot simulation lowsheets, effectively model new and existing processes, and signi icantly reduce engineering design time.
Introduction
Process simulation, as a tool to represent real-time performance of processes, has evolved immensely in the past decade. It has not only enabled a faster and an easier
understanding of complex processes, but it has also assisted in the debottlenecking and optimization of industrial operations.
As part of this course, Simulanis provides you with hands-on training on the industry's leading process simulation software, taking you through all the concepts as
basic as getting introduced to the user-interface, and as advanced as manipulating the control panel and optimization algorithms to obtain faster and accurate
results. The structure of this course bouquet has been described in the following sections:
Course Details
Getting started with the industry’s leading simulation engine
Basics of process simulation and process synthesis
Process lowsheeting on a simulation platform
Understanding the property methods, their relevance and their importance
Learn the basic techniques to transform a physical description of unit operations and processes into working simulation models.
Gain a beginner to intermediary level of pro iciency in simulating simple industrial problems.
Create simulation models with renewed con idence through a problem-based learning approach aided by a multitude of practical case studies.
Features
1. Introduction
Introducing the course bouquet, to help them learn the basics of process simulation, the trainees are refreshed with the fundamental concepts of chemical
engineering such as mass and energy balances, thermodynamics of phase and chemical equilibrium, along with heat and mass transfer, in a simulation environment.
Hence, the following topics are covered in this section:

3. Optimization
After imparting the introductory and basic know-how of working with a simulation tool, the next step in the learning-ladder equips the trainees with the techniques
of simulating common unit operations of chemical processes under a range of operating conditions. The major unit operations covered in this section are:
Learn to model and simulate basic unit operations of processes.
Customize existing unit operation models on a simulation platform.
De ine custom models using easy-to-grasp techniques and extend software-speci ic simulation knowledge onto more user-friendly formats (e.g. MS Excel).
Features
No simulation model of a process is complete without comprehensively exploring the avenues which may exist to effectively optimize the process. In line with this
objective, to perform an in-depth simulation model analysis, advanced model-analysis and manipulation techniques are imparted to the trainees, which
consequently present them with the underlying opportunities to save costs. The topics covered under this section include:
Understand the governing parameters which in luence the technique of process optimization during the design phase.
Get acquainted with a systematic decision-making approach to effectively implement optimization strategies in practice.
Learn from a host of industrial examples and case-studies illustrating the bene its of process optimization in the form of major energy and capital cost savings.
After presenting an all-inclusive account of using the simulation engine through an array of case-studies, expert tips, tools and techniques; the course bouquet aptly
concludes with a demonstration of all applications as-instructed, through real-world problems encountered in industry. The following industry-speci ic problems
have been covered to suitably accomplish the objectives of the course bouquet (list not exhaustive):
Re inery: CDU / VDU Simulations, FCC Unit and Hydrocracker Simulations
Pharmaceutical: Dryer, Granulation, Mixing, Milling, Conveying Simulations
Chemicals: Ammonia Synthesis, Sulphuric Acid Manufacturing Simulations
Utilities: Cogeneration, Heat Exchanger Network Design
Features
Apply simulation techniques gained from the course to model, simulate and optimize real-world industrial problems.
Gain con idence to apply simulation techniques and overcome a range of complex process design challenges and stiff operational problems.
Identify scope for practical value addition through plant-wide improvement studies aided by simulation techniques.
2. Simulating Unit Operations
