De-risk and optimize your green Hydrogen projects
BPT-ECX allows for early design and detailed modeling of electrolysis (Alkaline, PEM, SOEC and Chlor-Alkali Electrolysis).
What is BPT-ECX?
BPT-ECX is a unique unit operation for process simulators covering high-fidelity modelling of green hydrogen production with electrolysis. This software extension seamlessly integrates with industry-leading process simulators, along with well-proven workflows, forming a superb digital solution for optimizing and de-risking process facility design at an early stage.
BPT-ECX enables green hydrogen, green ammonia and green methanol production as well as being highly relevant for electrofuel plants, providing highly accurate steady state and dynamic electrolysis models enhancing design at an early stage as well as safeguarding return-of-investments.
