Aspen Technology Inc (AspenTech), one of the leading suppliers of software that optimises manufacturing for process industries, has announced the availability of aspenONE V8.4 software, featuring new Activated Exchanger Design and Rating (EDR) and updates to Activated Energy and Activated Economics in Aspen HYSYS and Aspen Plus. In addition, the new software adds crude assay data and new reactor models for refinery modeling with Aspen HYSYS and expands solids models for chemicals in Aspen Plus.
First introduced in aspenONE V8 software, AspenTech’s breakthrough Activation capability in Aspen Plus and Aspen HYSYS enables process engineers to do instant analysis of heat exchangers, energy, and economics without specialist knowledge of these engineering disciplines. This unified engineering environment enables engineers to work more efficiently and achieve better results within tight project timelines.

In V8.4, AspenTech continues to integrate the workflow between planning and crude evaluation and process simulation and design. By automating the import of crude data from Aspen Assay Management into Aspen HYSYS Petroleum Refining, AspenTech eliminates the manual process of entering hundreds of crude data points in order to accurately model a crude slate. In addition, Aspen HYSYS V8.4 adds models for Visbreaker and Delayed Coker units required for processing heavy crudes.
Building on solids modeling technology released in Aspen Plus V8, V8.4 bridges process engineering and particle science and extends solids modeling to non-experts. Using AspenTech’s solids models, including two new operating units, spray dryers and fluidised bed reactors, both process engineers and particle scientists are able to build designs in parallel using a common frame of reference for faster and more efficient process design. With the latest version of Aspen Plus, AspenTech expands its lead as the only company that offers process modeling of fluids and solids in one simulator.
