What is a digital twin? Why is it an essential building block for your organization’s initiatives, such as sustainability, operational excellence and improved margins? Leading energy and chemical companies are leveraging digital twin technology to model the behavior and performance of assets to improve their bottom line. In this on-demand webinar AspenTech’s Market Strategy Director and industry expert Ron Beck shares how digital twin technology provides the following benefits:

Operations in the process industries are challenging due to the inherent complexities and lack of insights. Plant digital twin technology helps solve these challenges. Learn how Burns & McDonnell developed and deployed a plant digital twin of a refinery’s FCC unit using rigorous process simulation to:

Solving operational problems and making decisions requires experience and sound engineering know-how. While traditional rules-of-thumb and heuristic approaches can help, steps for improving operations remain unclear, processes grow too complex and operations are left suboptimal. By using Aspen HYSYS®, Aspen Online and plant data from a data historian such as InfoPlus.21®, you can quickly identify issues and find solutions. Discover how to achieve reliable operations with model-backed intelligence.

J.M. Huber has been leveraging Aspen Collaborative Demand Manager™ to improve forecast accuracy for over 3 1/2 years.
