ProSimTechs specializes in software development of process simulation for use in process optimization tasks. Using ProSimTechs technology it is possible to diagnose current processing scenario of the plant, as well as to significantly improve the operation and design, for example, by minimi z ing neutral oil losses, steam consumption and reducing environmental impact while improving vegetable

Reactive Distillation: Modeling, Simulation,
Chemical process industries deal with production which further utilizes reaction followed by separation of the reaction mixtures. Reactive distillation is a new technique of combination of both reaction and separation in a single unit beneficial for equilibrium-limited reactions and also cost-effective. This makes it a highly complex process because many parameters involved in both reaction
In this study, we proved the possibility of combining membrane separation and vapor recompression to improve the conventional vegetable oil production, by both experiments and process simulation. Nearly 73% of energy can be saved in the process of vegetable oil extraction by the novel processing approach.

- Is there a model for soybean oil extraction process?
- A model for soybean oil extraction process has been developed for process simulation and sensitivity analysis. The process simulation models use the property databases, which was necessary since very few compounds could be found in the process simulation databases.
- What is a solvent-based extraction process for vegetable oil from soybean?
- A solvent-based extraction process for the production of vegetable oil from soybean has been studied with special emphasis on the solvent recovery section of the process. This solvent recovery section includes four parts: an oil recovery, a condensation system, a mineral oil system and a water–solvent separation.
- Can a simulation based study be used for oil production?
- Since many of the chemicals can also be found in other oils and oil-based products, a direct extension of this work to simulation-based studies of processes for the production of sunflower oil, palm kernel oil or olive oil should also be possible.
- How is a process model used in solvent recovery?
- A process model has been developed and validated by matching steady state simulation results from this model with available industrial data. The validated process model has been used to optimize the efficiency of solvent recovery by adjusting operational variables such as pressure and temperature.
- What are the main components of vegetable oil (soybean oil)?
- The main compounds representing the vegetable oil (soybean oil) usually consist of triglycerides, free fatty acids, tocopherols and sterols. The ICAS-ProPred software, an Integrated Computer Aided System developed by CAPEC, has been used to generate the pure compound data and insert them into the database of a commercial simulator (PRO-II).
- What are the effects of modern food production and distribution methods?
- Modern food production and distribution methods are responsible for up to 37% of global greenhouse gas emissions and 70% of water withdrawals and contribute to deforestation, mineral depletion, desertification, eutrophication, acidification, loss of biodiversity, and genetic erosion ( Petersson et al., 2021 ).
