SUMMARY:SPE-GCS: Opportunities and Challenges of CFD Modeling in Completions and Production Applications - February 28th\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Numerical modeling of the completions and production applications involves a combination of various physical phenomena operating in a wide range of length scales and sometimes involving complex multiphase non-Newtonian fluids. The tools and equipment can experience high flow velocities and must withstand erosion and corrosion from fracturing/cement slurries and production fluids. The modeling often requires fluid-structure interaction and a combination of flow modeling in mechanical devices and the reservoir. \nThe downhole tools require high reliability. Some equipment operates for decades in harsh environments and make autonomous adjustments to the production from different zones. As a result\, Virtual Verification and Validation have become the norm to qualify new designs and improve existing ones. \nThis workshop aims to bring together experts in academia and industry to brainstorm\, discuss\, and help us better understand the current state-of-the-art approach to this vital process and its applications. It will include short talks by key practitioners covering various aspects of CFD modeling\, followed by a networking session.

SUMMARY:PSRI Special Webinar : Separating Biochar and Ash from Renewable Processes - February 25\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:This webinar focuses on applying the well-established Third Stage Separator (TSS) in FCC circuit to emerging technologies.  As the energy transition accelerates\, the quest for processing renewable and circular feed stocks such as Biomass and Plastic waste is increasing. The biggest challenge in these services is the efficient separation of biochar and ash from the product hydrocarbon vapours. Shell Catalysts & Technologies (SC&T) has proven Third Stage Separation (TSS) technology for catalyst separation from FCC regenerator flue gas. Recent studies by SC&T and independent third parties have shown Shell’s TSS technology to be an excellent solution for the removal of biochar and ash from gas streams in other processes. This webinar will discuss the basics of Shell’s TSS technology\, the applications of the TSS in biochar and ash services\, and the findings from Shell’s TSS study on the separation of biochar and ash.

SUMMARY:AIChE PTF Webinar Series : Ultrafast Electrodeposition of Faceted Li metal Polyhedra - February 11\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Electrochemical deposition of metals with precise morphological and chemical control is of fundamental importance to a broad range of electrochemical systems\, including energy storage\, large scale manufacturing\, electronics\, and electrocatalysis. For non-reactive metals (e.g. Ni\, Pt)\, electroplating is a commercially established process that gives the desired control of deposition morphology and chemistry. However\, deposition of reactive metals (e.g. Li\, Na) critical for enabling next-generation batteries is complicated by metal surface corrosion that occurs concurrently with metal deposition\, making such electrodeposition processes neither well-understood nor well-controlled. This work highlights the electrodeposition of lithium (Li)\, a reactive metal anode plagued with uncontrolled dendritic morphologies and surface corrosion\, both of which are intimately linked and occur simultaneously. Despite tremendous research efforts to mitigate these issues\, common literature descriptions of Li metal deposits (e.g. “chunky”\, “pancake”) and their corrosion films (e.g. “strong”\, “stable”) are ill-defined and often qualitative\, highlighting our incomplete understanding of the deposition process and hindering the practical application of high energy battery chemistries enabled by Li metal. Our work seeks to bridge this critical gap in understanding by solving the fundamental challenge of (1) decoupling simultaneous electrodeposition from surface corrosion of reactive metals and (2) observing their reactive nanoscale interface. \nPTF Webinar Series on emerging technologies that are shaping the future of particle technology. We are inviting distinguished experts who will shed light on various emerging technologies. The goal of these webinar series is to excite the undergraduate and graduate students to get into particle technologies and prepare themselves for future job opportunities.

SUMMARY:Hi-Key Technology Online Training - Fixed Bed Simulation by Barracuda\, November 14th\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:Beijing Hi-key Technology Co. Ltd.\, is CPFD Software’s distributor in the People’s Republic of China. If you are located there and are interested in attending a training\, please email them here. \nFixed bed refers to a reactor filled with granular solid catalysts or solid reactants to form a stacked bed layer of a certain height. Gas or liquid materials flow through the gaps between particles and pass through the static fixed bed layer\, realizing a heterogeneous reaction process. The characteristic of this type of reactor is that the solid particles filled in the equipment are fixed\, which is different from the moving bed and fluidized bed in which the solid materials move in the equipment. It is also called a packed bed reactor. Fixed bed reactors are widely used in gas-solid phase reaction and liquid-solid phase reaction processes\, for example\, fixed semi-water gas generators in the synthetic ammonia industry\, fixed bed ion exchange columns in water treatment \, etc. \nFixed bed reactor is a kind of multiphase reactor that has been studied more thoroughly. There are many mathematical models to describe fixed bed reactor\, which can be roughly divided into two categories: quasi-homogeneous model (not considering the density and temperature differences between fluid and solid) and multiphase model (taking into account the density and temperature differences between fluid and solid). \nBased on the CPFD method\, Barracuda software can realize the heat and mass transfer process between particles and fluids in a fixed bed\, and with the efficient parallel computing capabilities of CPU/GPU\, it can solve the complex fluid-particle reactions in industrial-scale fixed-bed reactors. And since version 24.0\, the software has built-in particle-particle contact heat conduction model\, which can realize contact heat exchange between particles in a fixed bed.

SUMMARY:Hi-Key Technology Online Training - Ebullated Bed Simulation by Barracuda\, October 31st\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:Beijing Hi-key Technology Co. Ltd.\, is CPFD Software’s distributor in the People’s Republic of China. If you are located there and are interested in attending a training\, please email them here. \nCPFD is an advanced numerical simulation technology that is particularly suitable for processing systems containing a large number of particles and complex fluid flows. Since version 22.1\, Barracuda has built-in liquid phase models and bubble models to realize the heat and mass transfer processes between solid particles-liquid and liquid-bubbles in liquid phase fluids. Based on this\, and with the help of Barracuda software’s CPU/GPU efficient parallel computing capabilities\, industrial-scale fluidized bed simulations can be achieved\, such as the fluidized bed hydrocatalytic cracking process in the petrochemical field\, to guide researchers in design and optimization. \nNote: The ebullating bed hydrocracking process refers to the process in which the residual oil feed is mixed with hydrogen and then enters the reactor from the bottom . The catalyst particles in the reactor are in a boiling state due to internal and external circulation . The ebullating bed hydrocracking process was first developed by the U.S. Hydrocarbon Research Institute (HRI) and Urban Services Corporation. The process is called the hydrogen-oil (H-Oil) hydrocracking process.

SUMMARY:Hi-Key Technology Online Training - CFB Firing Coal and Biomass: A CPFD study\, October 17th\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:Beijing Hi-key Technology Co. Ltd.\, is CPFD Software’s distributor in the People’s Republic of China. If you are located there and are interested in attending a training\, please email them here. \nAs the world pays more and more attention to energy security and environmental protection\, finding a clean and efficient way to utilize energy has become an important issue. As a traditional energy source\, pulverized coal will produce a large amount of carbon dioxide and other pollutants during its combustion process. As a renewable energy source\, biomass has the advantage of zero carbon emissions\, and the ash after combustion is rich in nutrients and can be used in agricultural and forestry production. Therefore\, the blending of pulverized coal and biomass can reduce environmental pollution and promote sustainable development while ensuring energy supply. The blending of pulverized coal and biomass is mainly based on the complementary combustion characteristics of the two. Biomass has a high volatile content\, a low ignition point\, and is easy to burn; while pulverized coal has a high fixed carbon content\, stable combustion but large pollutant emissions. After mixing the two in a certain proportion\, the volatile matter of biomass can promote the ignition and combustion of pulverized coal and improve combustion efficiency; at the same time\, the combustion stability of pulverized coal can make up for the fluctuations in the combustion process of biomass and reduce the occurrence of unstable phenomena such as flameout. \nBarracuda is a simulation tool specifically designed for industrial-scale particle fluidization and chemical reactions. It can be used to simulate the process of coal powder and biomass blending to guide the design and optimization of related equipment\, greatly accelerate the R&D process\, and significantly reduce R&D costs and risks.
