World Class Process Dynamic Simulators for STRATCO® Alkylation Technology
At Elessent, we believe that people learn the most when they put their skills into practice using high-fidelity training tools in realistic environments.
With that specific goal in mind, Elessent developed its TMODS modeling software to train operators to anticipate and respond to a variety of situations using a realistic operator interface with a robust process simulator that accurately models the behavior of the alkylation processes from feeds to product storage. The TMODS modeling software is widely used within Elessent to simulate processes and train operators on Elessent’s most critical process units.
Elessent’s alkylation OTS includes preconfigured operator training scenarios and objective tasks to make it easy to tailor your training strategy to your particular needs and prepare your operators for successful startup and operation of actual units.
Each OTS combines Elessent subject matter expertise with the Elessent world-class training and safety culture. Our training simulators can be fully customized to match plant configuration, conditions, compositions, control schemes, safety interlocks and user interfaces. Each Elessent OTS is:
- Designed for immediate impact
