HSC Chemistry 9.5.1.5: The Foundational Thermodynamic Workbench for Industry HSC Chemistry 9.5.1.5 is a widely respected and comprehensive software package for chemical reaction and equilibrium calculations, serving as a fundamental tool in extractive metallurgy, chemical engineering, and process development. Developed by Outotec, it combines an extensive thermochemical database with robust simulation modules, enabling engineers and researchers to model industrial processes from first principles. By performing heat and mass balances, predicting reaction products, and exploring “what-if” scenarios, HSC Chemistry provides the scientific basis for designing efficient, economical, and sustainable processes in fields like mineral processing, metal production, and environmental engineering. Core Philosophy: Predictive Process Insight Through Fundamental Thermodynamics The power of HSC Chemistry lies in its rigorous application of thermodynamics, primarily...

HSC Chemistry 10.7.0: The Essential Thermodynamic Workbench for Process Industries HSC Chemistry 10.7.0 is the definitive, all-in-one software package for chemical reaction and equilibrium calculations, widely regarded as an indispensable tool in extractive metallurgy, chemical engineering, and process development. Developed by Outotec (now part of Metso Outotec), it combines an extensive thermochemical database with powerful simulation modules, enabling engineers and researchers to model complex chemical processes from first principles. By calculating heat and mass balances, predicting reaction products, and optimizing conditions, HSC Chemistry provides the scientific foundation for designing efficient, sustainable, and economically viable industrial processes. Core Philosophy: Predictive Process Design Through Thermodynamics HSC’s power stems from its rigorous application of thermodynamics. Instead of relying solely on empirical data, users...

Hexagon Inspire v2025.1: The AI-Driven Generative Design & Process Simulation Powerhouse The frontier of engineering design is shifting from crafting a single solution to exploring a universe of optimal possibilities. Hexagon Inspire v2025.1 stands at this frontier as a transformative computer-aided engineering (CAE) platform that fundamentally reimagines the product development workflow. Moving beyond traditional simulation’s role as a validation step, Inspire embeds AI-driven generative design and process simulation at the very heart of the conceptual phase. It empowers engineers and designers to define performance goals and manufacturing constraints, then leverages sophisticated algorithms to automatically generate and evaluate hundreds of design alternatives that are lightweight, structurally efficient, and ready for production. This version, v2025.1, represents the culmination of Hexagon’s vision for...
