Case Studies

Challenge

Optimize amine absorption tower performance for CO₂ capture while providing immersive visualization for engineering analysis and stakeholder communication.

Solution

Developed a steady-state process model of the absorption column, with document Q&A and 3D scene viewing for design review.

Study Aims

• Study solvent circulation rates with steady-state analysis
• Answer engineering questions from project documents
• Review the column as a 3D scene

Challenge

Model the complete carbon capture plant including absorber, stripper, heat exchangers, and compression systems to optimize plant-wide operations and train operators effectively.

Solution

Built a steady-state process model of the whole CCU train, with document Q&A and an operator training scenario set.

Study Aims

• Study plant-wide operating options on one steady-state model
• Answer engineering questions from project documents
• Prepare operator training scenarios

Challenge

Capture both steady-state performance and dynamic transient behavior of the gas sweetening unit to ensure safe operations during startups, shutdowns, and load changes.

Solution

Built steady-state and dynamic process models, with OTS scenarios for start-ups, shutdowns and load changes.

Study Aims

• Understand the unit with steady-state and dynamic models
• Aim: shorter start-ups through OTS-based practice
• Answer engineering questions from project documents
