CHEMISTRY MATTERS | ACCELERATING SUSTAINABILITY
What’s new
OLI’s dedication to innovation has led to the development of the latest platform release, V12. Designed to address real-world challenges, V12 enhances our ability to model complex scenarios throughout the entire asset lifecycle, ensuring accurate predictions, robust protection and peak performance in mission-critical environments.
OLI’s MSE corrosion model revolutionizes corrosion prediction by accurately modeling corrosion in both aqueous and non-aqueous environments using advanced thermodynamics and electrochemical frameworks. Unlike traditional models needing a water-rich phase to function, the MSE corrosion model supports CRA alloys 2507 and 2205, offering precise predictions for general and localized corrosion rates. This innovation ensures reliable results, enhancing safety and efficiency across industries dealing with substances like concentrated sulfuric acid, ethanol, and supercritical CO2. Extend asset life and prevent costly failures with this groundbreaking technology.
OLI’s new Scale Kinetics and Optimization Tool (SKIT) in ScaleChem V12 revolutionizes scale risk prediction by combining rigorous equilibrium models with scale kinetics. This tool predicts the onset and location of scale buildup and determines the type and concentration of inhibitors needed to mitigate risks. SKIT integrates key minerals and inhibitors, modeling their interactions to enhance scale management strategies. Users can also create custom databases using their own data, providing accurate risk analysis and efficient scale mitigation for oil and gas operations.
The novel solvent extraction (SX) database, integrated with the MSE thermodynamic framework, enhances lithium-ion and sodium-ion battery recycling by optimizing the recovery of critical metals like cobalt and nickel. This model predicts complex chemical equilibria in multiphase systems, using commercially relevant extractants (D2EHPA, Cyanex 272, PC88A) and common solvents (kerosene, n-heptane, iso-octane, toluene). It reduces the need for experimental trials, ensuring efficient, environmentally friendly recycling with maximum metal recovery and minimal waste. The database is designed to evolve, incorporating additional materials and solvents to meet the growing needs of battery recycling.
