BRE 600: Webinar – Renewable Diesel

This webinar introduces renewable diesel production modeling in ProMax.

The new ProMax capabilities for modeling distillate fuel production from renewable feeds will be discussed. The session will introduce fundamentals of renewable fuel processing including feed characterization, reaction process chemistry, and reactor design. The session will culminate in the review of a renewable diesel process model with insights on production optimization. Access to ProMax is not needed for this webinar, which will take approximately 1.5 hours. The webinar is hosted over WebEx, and information on how to connect to the session will be provided after registration.
