5 02/10/2014 Apros modelling program � The Apros provides easy on-line access for: o configuring and running the simulation models o solution algorithms and model libraries for full-scale modelling o dynamic simulation of processes, such as conventional power plants, nuclear power plants, and pulp and paper mills. � The model libraries have been comprehensively validated against data from physical process experiments. Besides the process, also automation and electrical systems can be modelled in detail. The simulation environment aims at meeting the requirements for testing, design, analysis, and training simulator applications

6 02/10/2014 Aspen Plus - modelling program � Aspen Plus and Dynamics are focused on process engineering and optimization. � Optimize process designs for energy use, capital and operating costs, and product yield through the use of activated energy, economics, and equipment design during the modeling process. � Due the different features of Apros and Aspen VTT uses both platforms to model large complex processes.
