Manage CO2 Emissions and Reduce Energy Costs
The need to manage greenhouse gases (GHG) is impacting many companies in the energy and power industries. Government regulation is expanding and requires reporting and compliance around carbon emissions. Carbon capture and storage represents one of the key strategies to limit carbon dioxide emissions – one of the major contributors to GHG.
AspenTech can help you understand your emissions footprint, comply with regulations, and manage emissions in your operations. aspenONE® V7.3 introduces new capabilities to our Engineering simulation tools, Aspen HYSYS® and Aspen Plus®. Greenhouse gas emissions calculations allow process engineers to estimate the greenhouse gas emissions associated with a process and check the capture efficiency of various chemical and physical solvents. Process engineers can also evaluate the “carbon equivalents” (CO2e) generated by the process to improve design decisions, and a system property can be used to calculate the “loading” of acid gases (CO2 and H2S) within pure or mixed solvents. In addition to the insight provided by engineering models, AspenTech's manufacturing solutions help you create KPIs, visualize performance, and control processes to ensure regulatory compliance.
