Material Processing in Silos: Adding Value in Storage and Surge Vessels
FREE | June 24, 2026
REGISTERReliable storage and feed of a bulk solid can be achieved with material flow properties testing and design of the silo and feeder according to the results of testing. Once material behavior is confirmed through testing, being able to accurately predict fill and flow sequences within surge vessels will allow for integration of value-add operations to new or existing silos and bins. By achieving this the silo becomes not only a storage system to decouple unit operations but also adds value in the process train. There are a number of different operations that have been successfully integrated into silos which will be reviewed as case studies in this webinar, along with the factors one must consider when evaluating a material and process for suitability of processing in a surge vessel.
Designing Distillation Columns with Confidence Using Aspen Plus®
FREE | June 3, 2026
REGISTERDesigning a distillation column requires balancing thermodynamics, hydraulics, internals, energy use and cost—often with limited information early in a project. Decisions made at this stage play a critical role in shaping capital investment, efficiency and long-term operability.
In this webinar, AspenTech® experts demonstrate how Aspen Plus® supports confident distillation column design. You’ll see how rigorous physical property methods, integrated column workflows and visual hydraulic analysis help teams evaluate internals, compare alternatives and align designs before engaging vendors.
You will learn the best practices for column design, including:
- How to perform physical property selection, including when and why experimental data and regression matter
- Column design workflow from conceptual models to RADFRAC
- Impact of column hydraulics and internals on sizing, operability and technology selection
A Q&A session will follow, so come prepared with your questions.
