REX Projects comes with an easy to use graphical user interface that
allows you to rapidly build the chemistry and provide experimental data for
kinetic estimation projects. Different kinetic mechanisms can be evaluated
against experimental data for easy analysis. Once the kinetic mechanism and
rate parameters are obtained, Virtual Experimentation and Reactor
Optimization studies can also be conducted by building several cases
simultaneously. Comprehensive graphing options allow for easy trend analysis
and comparison between cases.
REX relieves the user from the burden of building the differential equation
models, thus allowing the user to focus on the chemistry and performance
improvement of the reaction system. Models can be built consistently and
fast, resulting in savings in engineering time alone in the order of days.

Wide Range of Applicability
REX has facilitated the analysis of reaction systems for a wide range of
applications from petrochemicals to pharmaceuticals synthesis. REX allows
the user to select reaction mechanisms with kinetics ranging from power law
to complex Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson kinetics. Reactor types can
range from batch, semi-batch, continuous stirred tank, fixed bed and flow
reactors. The differential algebraic models that represent the kinetic
estimation and reactor optimization models are solved with sophisticated
algorithms.
Unique in Design and Features
REX design is unique in its understanding of the research workflow and thus
combining the tasks of estimation, simulation and optimization in one
framework, with easy transfer of information between these steps. Kinetic
Estimation can be done for a variety of reactors and reaction kinetics types.
Furthermore, REX is unique in its ability to perform flexible dynamic
optimization of temperature, pressure and compound addition or removal profiles
for batch systems.
Continuous Improvement and Customization
The software architecture of Optience products allows us to flexibly
customize our interfaces and models. We listen to our customers, and
Optience is committed to continuous improvement of our products to meet
their needs.
Proven Technology
REX is built on the success and experience of improving yields for numerous
projects in petrochemical, polymers and pharmaceutical synthesis. REX is
also backed by an experienced consulting and training services team that
can ensure effective utilization to generate superior results when it comes
to your reaction yields.
Seamless Transfer of Knowledge
As projects on reaction analysis are completed in REX Projects, the resulting
chemistry and kinetics can be seamlessly transferred to your corporate database
for archival. This allows company researchers to query the corporate database
and use this information for new projects.
