Abstract: This paper discusses the impact of software interoperability in strengthening the role of industrial and academic Computer Aided Process Engineering (CAPE). The viewpoint is predominantly industrial and focused on the activity of process simulation. The paper outlines the environment within which CAPE now operates and discusses the meaning of interoperability in this context. It then looks at the benefits that interoperability can bring and reviews the current status of the market place. The paper goes on to discuss the implications of these new capabilities for organisations and individuals and concludes with a look at some of the ways in which interoperability could be used in the future.

An approach to on-line optimization of chemical plants
TL;DR: In this paper, an effective approach to on-line optimization of chemical processes has been demonstrated using flowsheeting (ASPEN PLUS) for process optimization and parameter estimation and the Tjao-Beigler algorithm implemented in a mathematical programming language (GAMS/MINOS) for data reconciliation and gross error detection.
