Chemical Process Technology
Explaining chemical process technology is like trying to explain about all the fields of chemical engineering. Chemical process technology is any interaction between natural phenomena, like chemistry or biology, with starting materials and the manufacturing facilities used for the process. The applied technologies take advantage of knowledge of the phenomena in the natural world to […]
Chemical Processing Simulation
I want to mainly focus us on some points of view about chemical process simulation—a field that seems to be not well appreciated. The main reason for this is that the people that work in this field do not contribute directly to the manufacturing of their material or during the process in the industry. These […]
THE ADVANTAGE OF VISIMIX IN LIQUID–LIQUID MIXING
The VisiMix option is used to model the mixture of liquids that are not soluble in each other (emulsification) in chemical process technology. Once the mixing tank, mixing system, and average physical properties data are entered, to model mixing in liquid–liquid systems, additional data on phase properties also must be entered. VisiMix requests this information […]
Scale-up of Chemical Processes
What are the main considerations when we talk about scale-up in transfer processes?1. When you’re in the lab, you have very small equipment, whereas in a production environment you go from tens of liters to hundreds or thousands of liters; hence, you’re increasing the dimensions. If you want to have the same performance or the […]
Chemical process simulation using Excel or other software
What are the main considerations when we talk about scale-up in transfer processes? 1. When you’re in the lab, you have very small equipment, whereas in a production environment you go from tens of liters to hundreds or thousands of liters; hence, you’re increasing the dimensions. If you want to have the same performance or […]
Chemical process calculations and common problems in mixing
What is chemical process calculation? When we want to run a process simulation and then transfer it to the next step, for example, process scale-up or technology transfer to another facility, we usually run many scenarios to represent capability in progressing to the next process step. But we need to organize this data in some […]
