AspenTech acquires Sulsim software from Sulphur Experts

Aspen Technology, a leading provider of software and services to the process industries, announced it has acquired Sulsim® sulfur simulation software from Sulphur Experts. The Sulsim sulfur recovery product has been used by the world’s leading energy companies for over 25 years.

Sulfur recovery is performed in almost every refinery and gas plant processing high sulfur feeds. Regulatory policies require the removal of sulfur from gas produced by these plants. With Sulsim, process engineers can model the reaction furnace, reactors, incinerator, and other related operations of sulfur recovery plants accurately. Because this is the last step in acid gas cleaning, accurate modeling is essential since any disturbance will bottleneck the process flow causing reduced throughput and heavy losses.

AspenTech’s Aspen HYSYS® software, a leading simulation solution for the energy industry, already provides modeling capabilities for process equipment and for acid gas cleaning systems. Sulsim technology will allow AspenTech customers for the first time to optimize acid gas cleaning and sulfur recovery design and operations together.v Potential benefits for refiners and gas processors from using a single engineering environment include improved efficiency, capital savings, safer operation, and minimized operating costs.
