What is UniSim?
• UniSim is a suite of applications and services designed to provide simulation solutions throughout the plant lifecycle
• UniSim Design is Honeywell’s version of HYSYS• What did Honeywell acquire from AspenTech?
- Intellectual property (ownership) of Hyprotech® products Includes a two-year support agreement under which AspenTech will provide Honeywell with source code to for any new developments to Hyprotech products including HYSYSHoneywell hired 15 top AspenTech developers and architects, and the top 5 AspenTech technical support engineers
- Operator Training Simulation businessIncluding 40 staff, intellectual property, contracts and working capitalIncludes 3-yr non-compete provision

Other Considerations:Minimize aqueous fluorides
Results/Benefit:Minimum aqueous fluorides at pH 4.1,
initially CaHPO4 precipitates then Ca3(PO4)2 at higher pH’s - verified by experiment
