A SimuSage Process Model for the Oxidative Stage of the TSL Process

/ Process Simulation /

Please note that SimuSage has been discontinued. We recommend ChemApp for Python and FactFlow, embedded in the FactSage package, as alternative process simulation tools.  In recent years, there has been a continuous societal and industrial effort to promote the so-called „circular economy“. According to this paradigm, for producing engineering materials in general, and metals and

A Simusage Process Model for the Iron Blast Furnace

/ Process Simulation /

Please note that SimuSage has been discontinued. We recommend ChemApp for Python and FactFlow, embedded in the FactSage package, as alternative process simulation tools.  Harvey and Gheribi[1] developed a thermochemistry-based model for the iron blast furnace. In their work, the corresponding process model was developed with a flowsheeting approach based on the connected local equilibrium
