Catalytic pyrolysis of plastics is a rare example of heterogeneously catalyzed gas-solid reactions, and having the most effective simulation tools is critical to enable the development and optimization of our breakthrough Plas-TCat technology. Effective reactor design requires an understanding of the hydrodynamic and mixing parameters of the system as well as their effect upon the catalytic reactions. CPFD’s Virtual Reactor™ software supports Anellotech’s philosophy of model-based development, which reduces development time and scale-up risk.

Using Virtual Reactor we’ve explored a wider range of possibilities than we ever could have considered using physical testing for scaling up to industrial size… the digitalisation technology enables us to optimise the energy efficiency and emissions of our cement technologies while also minimising our overall carbon footprint.

This project delivered an excellent outcome, giving us confidence that specific hardware changes would restore the operation of our Cracker to the level we expect – which it did. Our team’s collaborative approach brought together CPFD’s expertise and our refinery knowledge.

We get much more out of our experiments when we compliment them with the CFD modeling, specifically CPFD Software, Barracuda. We have a better understanding of what’s going on. It allows us to see what we can’t see experimentally. And we get more value for our data because of it.
