Engineering 6

Reaction engineering, thermophysical properties, and process screening backed by deterministic engines.

6 curated workflows. Each fans out to several tested Paramus tools.

• Distillation Feasibility Screen

  Assess separation feasibility for a mixture by retrieving VLE/relative volatility, checking for azeotropes, and estimating minimum reflux/stages with Paramus property and separation tools, then flagging whether simple distillation is viable.When to use: a user asks “can I separate this mixture by distillation, and roughly how?”.Multi-tool WORKFLOW with separations judgment.

• Drying Curing Process Screen

  Screen a drying or curing process by relating solvent evaporation, heat/mass transfer, and film thickness to line speed, oven profile, and defect risk with Paramus thermophysical and process tools.When to use: a user needs an early read on drying/curing process conditions for a coating or film line.Multi-tool WORKFLOW with drying-process judgment.

• Heat Exchanger Sizing

  Produce a first-pass heat exchanger sizing by retrieving stream thermophysical properties, computing duty and LMTD, estimating an overall U, and returning required area with a Paramus property engine and standard correlations.When to use: a user asks “roughly how big a heat exchanger do I need for this duty?”.Multi-tool WORKFLOW with heat-transfer judgment.

• Process Safety Triage

  Triage a process or chemical inventory for safety hazards by screening reactive-chemistry incompatibilities, flagging hazardous properties (flammability, toxicity, thermal instability), and summarizing key risks using Paramus data and property tools.When to use: a user asks “what are the safety risks of this process/mixture?”.Multi-tool WORKFLOW with process-safety judgment.

• Reactor Kinetics Screen

  Screen reactor operating conditions or mechanisms by building a kinetic model, integrating it over conditions with a Paramus kinetics engine, and comparing conversion/selectivity/yield across a condition grid.When to use: a user asks “what conditions maximize yield/selectivity?” or wants to compare kinetic scenarios.Multi-tool WORKFLOW with reaction-engineering judgment.

• Thermophysical Property Lookup

  Retrieve and reconcile thermophysical properties (density, viscosity, heat capacity, phase behavior, vapor pressure) for a fluid or mixture across conditions using Paramus property engines (e.g. CoolProp/thermo), with unit handling and provenance.When to use: a user needs reliable physical properties at given T/P for design calculations.Multi-tool WORKFLOW with property-selection judgment.
