USIM PAC

USIM PAC is a simulation and optimization software for industrial processes. It is particularly suitable for processes involving solids or complex mixtures difficult to qualify with pure substances. Thanks to a library of equipment models, USIM PAC enables to simulate the successive transformation steps of material: crushing, grinding, flotation, screening, drying, membrane filtration, hydrometallurgy, solid/liquid separations, chemical or biological reactions... To extract the valuable components, the raw material must be deconstructed through mechanical, chemical or biological treatment operations. The design and optimization of plants require to be able to “model” the process. With USIM PAC, the process is modelled graphically, enabling a total system approach. The processed material can be described with its complexity, and its physicochemical transformations are modelled with precision. The calculations are performed in just minutes, thanks to powerful algorithms. Main features •Predictive material balance •Equipment sizing •Optimisation of plant performances: yield, products quality •Optimisation of material, energy, water and CO2 balances •Estimate CAPEX, OPEX Fields of application - Mineral processing - Extractive metallurgy • Urban mining - Waste and wastewater recycling • Processing plant dealing with solids and mixtures
