SRE Simulation Services
Sulfur Recovery Engineering (SRE) has partnered with Virtual Materials Group (VMG), allowing SRE to use the powerful VMG Sulfur Plant simulation software in-field (VMGSim). Using over 20 years of accumulated SRE sulfur unit data, our team is able to accurately model any given SRU. In conjunction with our field results, the models provide important process values such as Reaction Furnace adiabatic temperature, Converter bed dewpoints, and catalyst activity providing the most up-to-date and accurate performance correlations all within the most flexible SRU modeling tool. Our field testing engineers use VMGSim to model each plant that we visit and have found it to be a powerful tool for on-site unit optimization. Our engineering reports also include a ‘tuned’ model of the client’s SRU such that they themselves can open and manipulate the variables to track operational trends in their plants. A great tool!
TUNED SRU MODELING
Do you want access to a predictive simulation model of your SRU? What about a model that is tuned to match your SRU’s field performance? See more
DYNAMIC MODELING
How can I get better estimates of SRU performance and identify pinch-points when considering different operating scenarios, such as turndown, and different equipment- either by upgrade or retrofit? Here, a Dynamic Model would be of great benefit. See more
DESIGN CONSULTATION
SRE’s extensive SRU and Amine Unit knowledge base makes us a trusted source in terms of identifying your processing requirements and restrictions. SRE has you covered if you require feedback, suggestions, or a formal design critique. Furthermore, the VMGSim Sulfur Package generates high-fidelity SRU models that are best-in-class. See more
SIMULATION TRAINING
Are you looking to learn how to use Symmetry in order to model Amine, Sulfur Recovery and Tail Gas Cleanup Units yourself? SRE offers comprehensive simulation training programs aimed at teaching our clients how to use Symmetry for their needs. See more
PROCESS SIMULATION SOFTWARE
BEST-IN-CLASS MODELING CAPABILITIES
Sulfur Recovery Engineering (SRE) has partnered with Virtual Materials Group (VMG), allowing SRE to use the powerful VMG Sulfur Plant simulation software in-field (Symmetry). Using over 20 years of accumulated SRE data, our team is able to accurately model any given SRU or Amine Unit. In conjunction with our field results, the models provide important process values such as Reaction Furnace adiabatic temperature, Converter bed dewpoints, catalyst activity, Lean/Rich loading, and Purge/Reflux rates providing the most up-to-date and accurate performance correlations all within the most flexible modeling tool.
