Notice
that the revised and extended parameter tables obtained within the
consortium are
not available via the different process simulators (Aspen PlusÒ,
CHEMCADTM,
PRO/II, HYSIM,...) or via the software package from DDBST GmbH.
They will be supplied exclusively to the contributing companies
together with an implementation guide to current process simulators.
It is
allowed to use the new group interaction parameters and experimental
data measured within the project only in the member company (including
affiliate companies). It is not allowed to pass on the information to
third parties. |
