Corporation

ppPLUS models all organizations as they can be found in corporate structures. The Corporation is the Brand, defined by the Entities they are operating in. A Corporation can only be created on top of an Entity, the "Holding-Entity". A Corporation is not essential for the modeling, but should be created, when certain criteria are met, like: publicly listed, public funding, major group of entities or other.

A Corporation can only be created based on a Legal Entity, which is not already linked to another Corporation.
Available Entities will be listed for selection as the Main Holding Company. If an Entity is not showing on the list, make sure, the Entity can be a Shareholder in addition to not being already allocated.

World Sites Map

Introduction

World view of all the Sites created in the system.

Legend explanation

Markers	Status	Action
Refinery Chemicals Feedstock Project Utilities Research Renewables Logistics	Pins of various colours show locations of Operating Sites associated with the Entity. These can be filtered on or off by using the filter list at top right of the map.	Click on a pin to access Site Production Summary and Mass Balance information.

  Asset

The Sites' Assets model the manufacturing plants, storage facilities, research, utility or admin functions required for the processing of the products. Each Assets has at minimum 1 Unit, which further defines the functionality of the Asset.
Technologies applied in the manufacturing process define the structure of the Assets.

Category

Typically an Asset has the category Processing, but can also be defined as a Utility, Research or Admin Category.

Location & Geo-Codes

Additional information on the location of the Asset. The Asset may also reside outside the boundaries of the Site.
The Latitude(s), Longitude(s) fields allow to precisely place the location of the Asset inside the Site.

Square Meters / Startup Date

Useful for cost-allocation calculations or determination of depreciation periods.

Technology

The Asset configuration may be determined by the Technology used in the process.
A Licensor can be selected, if it is different from the Technology Owner.
The Technology cannot be changed or removed, if an Asset-Unit has been linked with a Technology-Unit.

Utilization Planning

Selector will determine, if future capacities (Utilization) is calculated on the Asset- or Unit-Level. (for future implementation)

Unit of Measure

Determines the Unit of Measure for the consolidation of the Asset-Capacity

  Asset Unit

Asset Units represent individual pieces of equipment, like furnaces or other chemical reaction units. Units allow to split the Assets (Plants) into separate processing Units.
Assets (Plants) can be configured accordingly to the Technology setup chosen.

Quantity

Units can be created individually or grouped by the number existing in the plant.
Example: A plant consisting of 6 different furnaces, can either be configured with 1 Furnace-Unit, Quantity: 6; or alternatively with 6 Furnace-Units (Quantity: 1). This allows to apply different utilization-calculations (for future implementation).

Category

Units can be categorized as In- or Out- Units, or both. This allows for simpler selection in the modeling process.
Example:A furnace is a typical Input-Unit, a product-fractionator an Output-Unit.

Supply Site

Asset Units can be used to create the supply-chain-linkage between Sites. The dropdown allows to select the source (Site) of the imported feedstocks (raw materials).

  Product-Structure

Products in ppPLUS are modelled in a hierarchical structure, organizing products by industry or origin and various product-categories.

  Segments

Segments represent the industries, ranging from the refinery feedstock, agricultural products, forestry sourced materials, mining metals and minerals, to downstream sectors, such as pharmaceuticals, automotive, steel, glass, paper, with broader categories of refining products, as well as chemcial products encompassing organic, mineral and polymer products.

  Main-Families

Main-Families split up the Segments by individual chemical product type, structure and/or origin.

  Sub-Families

Subfamilies add an additional product speciation based on function, usage, chemical form, structure or functionality.

  Main Products

Main Products group the Sub-Products (the actual product). Main Products allow also to select a generic product, if the Sub-Product is not known. Example: You can choose Polyethylene, which is a placeholder for LLDPE, HDPE, LDPE or Other.
The table of Sub-Products to the right shows all the linked Sub-Products of the Main-Product and identifies the Default-Sub-Product for the processing-steps if the specific Sub-Product is not known. Each Main-Product requires one Sub-Product.

Categorization

Each Main-Product is organized in 3 Categories:
Segments: Segmentation into Feedstocks, Refining, Chemicals and other follow-up stages.
Product Main Families: Dividing the Segments into major Families, like Chemicals -> Aromatics, Polymers...
Product Sub Families: Further categorzation of the Main Families: Polymers -> Commodity Plastics, Engineering Plastics...

Status

Unit of Measure

The Main- (and Sub-) Products default Unit of Measure, when the product is selected for the modeling.

Physical State

Selection of the Physical State of the Product.
3 different Physical States are possible: Gas / Liquid / Solid

Value Chain

Value Chains link Products derived from a specific Building Block. A Main-Product can either be a Building Block or be a part of a Value Chain. ppPLUS allows to link a Main-Product to two different Building Blocks.
A Main-Product cannot be a Building Block and be a part of a Value Chain.
Example:
Ethylene -> Building Block
Ethylbenzene -> Linked to Building Block I: Ethylene and Building Block II: Benzene

Building Block

Main-Products can be defined as Building Blocks, to identify the Key Products for consolidation and avoid double count.
Example: Ethylene (= Building Block) and Polyehtylene.

  Sub Products

Sub Products represent the actual product which is required for modeling.

Sub-Product Name

Industry specific name.

Abbreviation

Abbreviation of the product for referencing.

Alternative Names

Listing of alternative names, the product is also known as.

Chemical Formula

Chemical formulas subscript characters can be edited with sub tags. This field can be left blank.

Molecular Weight

Molecular Weight is a measure of the sum of the atomic weight values of the atoms in a molecule. The exact value is entered for Sub-Products of know molecular composition, e.g. C6H6 in case of Benzene. In case of complex mixtures such as Crude Oil types, or Sub-Product with a Molecular Weight distribution such as most Polymers, the default value 1 is entered.

Freezing Point

The Freezing Point, which is the Temperature at which a Sub-Product solidifies under cooling, can be entered, but it is mostly relevant for Crude Oil, Oil Fractions and Liquid Fuels, since it is a critical determinant of the flowability and temperature usage window. This field can be left blank.

Boiling Point

The Boiling Point is the Temperature at which a liquid Sub-Product vaporizes when heated up. It provides an indication about the Physical State of the Sub-Product depending upon environmental conditions such as Temperature and Pressure. This field can be left blank.

Melting Point

The Melting Point is the Temperature at which a solid Sub-Product becomes liquid when heated up. It provides an indication about the Physical State of the Sub-Product depending upon environmental conditions such as Temperature and Pressure. This field can be left blank.

Specific Gravity

The Specific Gravity of Crude Oil types is automatically calculated from the API value and required for Mass Balance calculation purposes, so that it is required for this class of Sub-Products; for any Sub-Product else than Curde Oil types, Specific Gravity is optional and the field can be left blank, but an informative Density value can be entered instead.

API Gravity

API Gravity is required for Crude Oil types (Liquid Feedstocks) as it is used to determine the Specific Gravity required for Mass Balance calculation purposes.

Sulfur Content

Sulfur Content is an informative value for many Feedstock types in all physical states (such as Coal, Crude Oil, Natural Gas), Refining Fractions and often Liquid Fuels. It should be entered if known but the field can also be left blank.
