Hydrogen and carbon capture have become focal points as energy and chemical companies look to reduce emissions and achieve net-zero carbon targets. But what’s the best approach?

Please join Hydrocarbon Processing Executive Editor Adrienne Blume and AspenTech Industry Expert Ron Beck as they discuss how new digital tools integrated with existing technology give you a competitive edge to reduce your carbon footprint while greatly advancing your overall sustainability efforts. Learn how new innovations enable you to:

• Combine process, AI and risk modeling to drive optioneering, innovation and economics
• Scale rapidly from demonstration plants to multiple industrial facilities
• Integrate systems risk and energy modeling into existing assets
• Apply advanced analytics and modeling to ensure operability of new technologies

In addition, customer case studies will be shared to demonstrate how modeling has been applied in support of carbon capture, green and blue hydrogen, and fuel cells.

There will be a Q&A session following the event. We encourage you to join the conversation by submitting questions when registering.

According to a June 2020 McKinsey report, "The Next Normal in Construction," EPCs have an opportunity to double their profitability by embracing a handful of “emerging disruptors.”  One of these disruptors, digitalization of processes, is within reach of most EPCs and aligns with initiatives already underway at many firms.  Join us to learn more about:

• McKinsey’s view on how emerging disruptors can drive dramatic improvement in profitability for EPCs
• AspenTech’s approach to a more integrated, digital FEED process through standardization and connectivity of engineering information
• Practical next steps you can take to accelerate your digitalization initiatives

Trends in traditional and new energy markets reveal major trends in global energy markets.  Oil infrastructure stages a comeback from historic lows, while natural gas, hydrogen  and renewables point the way to a very different energy future.

Refining and petrochemical producers face increased pressure to maximize margins while meeting sustainability targets. For any manufacturing operation, a resilient, dependable process control system and electrical system is critical. In this webinar, learn how integrating data into a single window for both process performance and electrical power consumption delivers performance, productivity and ultimately, profit gains.

Join James Ladd and Shebin Jalal to hear how combining electrical and process information can:

• Give operators unified visibility to what is happening so they can decide on the next best action.
• Respond to changing process conditions or power consumption conditions to maintain production.
• Track and trend power consumption to identify potential equipment malfunction and wear.
• Easily understand power usage to uncover energy saving opportunities
