Sigmafine data reconciliation is used for mass, volume, and energy balances on a unit or plant-wide basis. A gross error detection process precedes the balance.
It balances material quantities and their individual components satisfying conservation principles. This analyses rule is need to balance processes where a mass balance is not enough to determine the amounts of concentrated and purified components. Industries such as metallurgical, chemical, gas plants, and refining can benefit from the use of this functionality.
Sigmafine also balances process networks that contain heat exchangers and process units where a simultaneous balance of mass and energy is required. This tool can calculate mass flowrates and thermal efficiency.
