Manufacturing Processes

Ventilation systems design to improve the control of the air behavior and thermal analyses to optimize manufacturing processes

Ventilation system design to block toxic agents and DEM modelling to optimize industrial performances.

 

Cantene supports the design of the ventilation systems to prevent the circulation of toxic substances during the chemical processes. Cantene operates using advanced DEM modeling, to optimize performances in manufacturing processes of granular materials in chemical, food and agriculture and construction industries. Through CFD and DEM computational models (Discrete Element Method, developed in collaboration with Politecnico of Turin), Cantene studies the behavior of complex industrial plants or processes: heat exchanges of an oven, dryers, insulation of a passenger’s carriage, and the emissions confinement in vulcanization plants. Aspherix® is the tool used for DEM modelling technique. It allows to analyze and simulate the dynamic of granular materials (sand, wood pellet, cereals), in order to estimate the kinetic interaction between particles and the thermal interaction with hot/cold fluids that flow through the particles.

 

Cantene offers support from the preliminary design phase to commissioning. In the first case, simulations help evaluate interferences with civil works and productive processes. In the second case, they help verify if the output of the designing choices suits with what was predicted.

Particles, packs, pollutants behavior is always a challenging engineering problem. We help you find the whole picture.

VALUE CHAIN

  • 01 FEASIBILITY STUDY

    Simulations help during the preliminary project plan to: evaluate interferences with civil works and productive processes; support outline structural decisions about ventilation design systems.

  • 02 HSE (HEALTHY SAFETY ENVIRONMENT)

    Definition of objectives and performances to monitorize, to guarantee HSE requirements. Particularly in relation to the aspects developed through a performance-based approach.

  • 03 THERMAL PHYSICS ANALYSIS

    Analysis of thermal physics that characterize productive processes.

  • 04 MODELLING AND SIMULATION

    Quantitative analyses for all cases, in which derogations are necessary to keep the aim of the architectural concept, are developed to measure the effects of fire scenarios.

  • 05 VENTILATION SYSTEM DESIGN

    Simulations support the ventilation system design in an ordinary or emergency scenario.

  • 06 DELIVERY & COMMISSIONING

    Through simulations, it’s possible to verify if the output of the designing choices and of the implementation strategies suits with what was predicted.
