PRO/II to KG-TOWER Integration
The integration between KG-TOWER software and PRO/II eliminates the need for manual transfer of data, which allows the customer to do a large number of calculations in a very short time and removes the risk of data transfer errors.
  • Use PRO/II process simulation software to perform rigorous distillation, absorption and stripping calculations.
  • Launch the KG-TOWER utility from the PRO/II menu and view column liquid and vapor loads, select the stages that need to be studied in the KG-TOWER software, and start
    KG-TOWER software.
  • Do hydraulic calculations
    for Koch-Glitsch trays and packing using the same equations used by
    Koch-Glitsch engineers.
