In the chemical industry, steam is used extensively as a heat transfer medium, power generation, as well as directly used in chemical reactions. Measurement of this vital process input has been challenging with traditional flow technologies like Differential Pressure (DP) Orifice, Venturi, and other elements as well as the newer Vortex principle, which overcomes some of the limitations of DP based meters, however, is still limited in turndown and has its own unique limitations (i.e. sensitivity to mechanical vibrations in vortex frequency range)

A new gas ultrasonic flowmeter is available for superheated steam which provides exceptional accuracy over extremely wide turndowns, is completely non-obstructive causing zero additional pressure loss and requires no maintenance. This session will cover the challenges in developing an ultrasonic flowmeter able to contend with the difficult conditions poised by superheated steam. We’ll show the unique construction of this meter and discuss the user benefits it brings to the chemical industry.

We’ll demonstrate some real-world applications that solved measurement problems while exceeding user expectations! Learn how gas ultrasonic flowmeters can help your management of this essential utility.

Design Smarter. Reduce Risk. Deliver Faster.
In today’s competitive engineering landscape, accurate process insight is essential. Whether you’re evaluating a new concept, optimizing an existing plant, or preparing for a major capital investment, simulation is no longer optional — it’s foundational.

Join us for a comprehensive introductory webinar exploring how CHEMCAD empowers engineers and organizations across industries to model, analyze, optimize, and validate process designs with confidence.

Why Process Simulation Matters
Every project face uncertainty — feedstock variability, energy costs, market shifts, regulatory changes, and technical risk. Simulation provides clarity before capital is committed.

This session is designed for professionals at every level — from new users exploring process simulation to experienced engineers seeking more powerful tools for decision-making.

When production issues occur, immediate action at the operational level can be the difference between smooth recovery and costly downtime. Yet many operators either don’t know about chronic inefficiencies or don’t have the tools to act on them quickly enough. That’s why real-time visibility in the control room is essential for maximizing production performance and reducing waste.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how empowering operators with timely and intuitive data can dramatically improve decision-making at a facility. We’ll also discuss how thoughtful control room and dashboard design enables decisions at the speed of thought. You’ll get an inside look at how W. R. Grace, a global specialty chemical manufacturer, reduced downtime and cut production waste by deploying practical, operator-focused dashboards.

Smart manufacturers are realizing that industrial AI is only as powerful as the data you provide it. Real-time industrial process data is at the core of effective predictive modeling, and the quality of this data is essential to achieving reliable outcomes. A well-planned data architecture enables intelligent technology to anticipate production failures and provide meaningful recommendations for improved efficiency. This webinar explores what it truly means to build an AI-ready data ecosystem by uncovering common pitfalls and providing solutions you can use to accelerate your plant’s digital maturity.

Join us to explore how process intensification strategies transform biofuel production through efficient technology. This live webinar will be led by Rocky Costello, a professional chemical engineer with extensive experience in biofuel projects. Using a case study from a biodiesel plant that was built and operated in Illinois, Rocky will highlight how intensified systems can enhance performance and scalability. This session will cover transesterification, purification, and distillation in biodiesel production, with a focus on continuous processing and high conversion yields.

By the end of the webinar, you’ll gain insights into:
• Managing feedstock variability
• Enhancing conversion and purification
• Continuous flow Spinning-Tube-in-Tube (STT) Reactors
• Applying simulation-driven strategies to optimize biofuel operations

The webinar will include a live Q&A with Rocky Costello, offering a unique opportunity to ask questions and receive expert guidance tailored to your facility’s needs.

Modern process industries are experiencing fluctuating market conditions and tight operational margins, leading chemical engineers to rely on real-time data to boost efficiency and reduce costs. Yet, many organizations are at different stages in their digital transformation journey. Some are just starting, while others are looking to optimize existing solutions. This webinar explores practical ways to harness industrial analytics for quick, measurable wins, regardless of where you are on the path to digital maturity.

Handling powders and bulk solids can be considerably more challenging than dealing with liquids and gases. These difficulties often arise due to a lack of adequate training, leading to a reliance on trial-and-error methods. Bulk solids and powders frequently encounter various flow challenges, including bridging, ratholing, flooding, and inadequate flow rates, and more. Many of these flow issues can be traced back to improper discharger or feeder designs. Effective feeder design not only enhances the flow within bins, hoppers, and stockpiles but also positively influences product quality. Join our webinar to gain valuable insights into common feeder-related flow problems and receive essential design recommendations that can significantly benefit your operations.
