Canada's National CCUS Convention

September 23-25, 2025
Edmonton Convention Centre | Edmonton, Alberta

Decarbonizing heavy-emitting industries is a complex challenge, hindered by technical, economic, and commercial barriers. However, the most urgent obstacle is the demand for skilled designers and engineers who can effectively design and simulate amine-based carbon capture processes for large emission sources.

This intensive workshop equips participants with essential skills for designing and simulating these processes, enabling informed decision-making. It is tailored for process engineers, chemical engineers, plant designers, process simulators, plant operators, and process consultants, ensuring relevance to a wide range of professionals.

A highlight of the workshop is the application of ProTreat®, a rate-based process simulation software developed by Optimized Gas Treating, Inc. (Texas, USA). This powerful tool supports designing, operation, optimization, troubleshooting, and process revamping, offering participants a hands-on opportunity to refine their expertise in carbon capture technology.

Workshop Content

What to Expect

This comprehensive program explores amine-based carbon capture systems, emphasizing process design and the assessment of gas streams—untreated, treated, and product. Participants will gain hands-on expertise in designing and simulating key processes, including:

  • Gas treating
  • Carbon capture
  • Gas dehydration with glycol systems

The workshop features an introduction to and practical application of the ProTreat® Process Simulator, allowing attendees to work directly with Optimized Gas Treating’s industry-leading software on a variety of real-world case studies.
