Waste Plastic: Challenges and Opportunities for the Chemical Industry

Despite plastic’s many benefits, the ever-increasing mass of unmanaged plastic waste is causing significant damage to the global ecosystem. A few key regulations, as well as recycling technologies, are helping to curb the threat.

Use Dynamic Analysis to Determine Time to Consequence

Time to consequence (TTC) is the time between initiation of the safety system by a failure and the moment the hazardous consequence occurs. Dynamic simulations can help to determine TTC and ensure safety systems are adequate.

Design and Operation Considerations for Distillation Experiments

Despite great advances in process simulation, the need remains for real-life distillation testing. This practical guide gives a broad overview of how to set up experimental distillation projects.

Steam vs. Electric Heating — The Basics

Consider process requirements and plant operating goals to determine the optimal heating source for your facility.
