ChemSep

ChemSep is a software system for simulation of distillation, absorption, and extraction operations. ChemSep integrates flash calculations, the classic equilibrium stage column model and a nonequilibrium or rate-based column model in one easy to use program. The ChemSep GUI allows you to simulate any problem within minutes and to export your results in a variety of formats, including spreadsheet, text, and html. You can use ChemSep in stand-alone mode or inside any flowsheet via CAPE-OPEN. The nonequilibrium model in ChemSep is unique in providing an unsurpassed number of mass transfer correlations and flow models as well as liquid-liquid extraction and three phase distillation column models.

  • ChemSep version 6.3 now allows tray and packed column sizing while using the equilibrium stage model (with efficiencies), a new CAPE-OPEN interface, new packed column performance and design methods, among many other features (see also list of previously added features).
  • ChemSep-LITE is available for FREE download and is now CAPE-OPEN compliant (article in NPT). It can be used as a stand-alone column simulator or as a unit operation model inside any CO compliant flowsheet simulation program such as ASPEN Plus or COCO. ChemSep-LITE includes the equilibrium column model and is limited to 10 components and 150 stages.
  • The ChemSep Case Book: Showcases columns and flowsheets solved with ChemSep .
  • The ChemSep Model Developer allows users to add their own types of column internals, correlations for mass transfer and interfacial area, as well as tailored design methods. The GUI can be extended to handle any model switches and parameters. The code for these models and internals is compiled with OpenWatcom compilers and is linked dynamically and can be fully tested with a debugger.
