Today, computational modeling and simulation (M&S) is a key component of process development in the chemical, pharma, and biotech industries. The popularity and success of modeling can be largely attributed to its ability to predict with great accuracy the (3-D) flow, mixing, mass-transfer, etc. fields inside process equipment such as reactors, pumps, centrifuges, mixers, etc. Further, simulation data is naturally rich in detail from which important process insights can be extracted. However, despite these advantages, the full potential of M&S  as a “go-to” process development and scale-up activity remains unfulfilled. This is because the process insights extracted from simulation data is not readily available for easy consumption to the greater process engineering community within an organization.

Specifically, analysts do not have a process knowledge repository solution that enables them to meaningfully store, curate, and distribute process insights to the greater process engineering community. Simulation data and process insights/knowledge derived from it largely reside in presentation decks, cumbersome worksheets, etc. which are hard to maintain and not scalable. This situation is not optimal and needs to be rectified relatively fast.

In this seminar, we present some key strategies to successfully address this problem of process knowledge management. Methods by which simulation data can be converted into process knowledge are first presented. This is followed by a description of a workflow that enables efficient storage and curation of the process knowledge. Finally, we present methodologies by which the stored process knowledge can be distributed for easy consumption by the greater process engineering community within the organization.

If you are a modeling engineer (CFD, FEA, LBM, etc.) analyst or the leader of a group of such engineers, this webinar is a must-attend for you!
