BPT has recently been engaged by a process equipment supplier in a project to validate the design of an air separation plant by applying best-in-class simulator technology combined with market-leading process, control and simulation domain knowledge.
A company rep expresses "BPT has unique and hands-on expertise in modelling such complicated equipment units, combining a deep understanding of simulator unit operations and thermodynamics as well as how to reconfigure/tune commercial process simulators to highly accurate solutions adding value."
Air separation plants separate atmospheric air into its primary components - nitrogen, oxygen and argon.
Simulator modelling of cryogenic air separation, which utilizes the differing condensing/boiling points of the components of air to enable separation by distillation at cryogenic temperatures, is challenging and often leads to results with a lot of uncertainty.
The contract is for a major and experienced process equipment supplier in the EMEA time zone.
Billington Process Technology (BPT) is an independent digital solution, simulation and service company with Headquarter outside Oslo, Norway.
