Software simulation improves chemical
processes
Invensys Process Systems has released the newest version of the SimSci-Esscor PRO/II software, a steady-state process simulator used to design, analyse and improve chemical processes
In addition to the numerous infrastructure upgrades and enhancements that address the emerging needs of the hydrocarbon and chemicals processing industries, PRO/II simulation software can now be used on Microsoft Vista Enterprise and Business operating systems, and IPS has provided an updated installation procedure and support for Microsoft Office 2007 PRO/II 8.2 simulation software includes improvements for modeling heavy oils and electrolytic systems and for generating pure component properties

The PRO/II 8.2 simulator improves heavy-oils modeling with the addition of a new liquid viscosity prediction method that prevents viscosity from being skewed by the heaviest petroleum component.
PRO/II 8.2 software has also integrated the Mixed Solvent Electrolyte model, the latest electrolyte model from OLI Systems, capable of reproducing speciation, chemical and phase equilibria, applicable to water-organic-salt systems and aqueous solutions from dilute to the fused-salt limit.
The newest version of the software is also integrated with ProPred, a property prediction tool from the Computer Aided Process-Product Engineering Centre of the Technical University of Denmark, that allows pure component properties to be predicted from structure based on a multi-level group contribution method and can be used directly with PRO/II software.
"PRO/II 8.2 software shows our dedication to both the hydrocarbon and chemicals processing industries.
We have developed features for each industry, as well as introduced features and infrastructure upgrades that will enhance the user experience of all of our customers," said Joseph McMullen, PES Product Manager for IPS: "Our technological advances in the area of modeling heavy oils truly set PRO/II simulation software apart from the competition, which continues to have issues accurately modeling heavy oils".
The new integration with Microsoft Vista Enterprise and Business operating systems and support for Microsoft Office 2007 means that IPS clients can now integrate simulation and modeling functionality and data more easily with other enterprise applications.
