EDEM: Work smarter, not harder

How the Process Industries are using particle simulation technology to increase operational efficiency

Process Workshops in London, Sheffield and Edinburgh, September 2009

• London Workshop – Friday 18th September
• Sheffield Workshop – Wednesday 23rd September
• Edinburgh Workshop – DEM Solutions HQ – Monday 28th September

EDEM software provides key design and process information on the flow and the interaction of particulates such as powder, pellets and granules with equipment and the surrounding environment. EDEM simulation of particle handling and processing operations produces a wealth of new and valuable data which is difficult and costly to obtain from physical testing. Engineers are using EDEM to ensure that equipment is well-designed, has lower risk of failure and improved operational efficiency leading to lower energy use, less material wastage and better product quality.

During September 2009, DEM Solutions will be running a number of workshops aimed specifically at Senior Process Engineering professionals. Presenters will highlight areas where EDEM is delivering substantial business value using industrial cases and demos to illustrate the solutions and benefits.

• Work Smarter: Efficient material transport for increased output
• Reduce Expenditure: Reducing wear of equipment to prolong equipment lifetime and reduce maintenance costs
• Take Control of Schedules: Robust process design to guarantee production schedules and raise productivity levels
• Optimize Operations: Optimal operating conditions for management of energy consumption, consistent product quality and adherence to manufacturing legislation
