DISIRE

With the DISIRE project, the properties of raw materials and product flows will be integrated, through their transformation, into a single on-line measurement system.

This system will provide a high level of knowledge about the internal dynamics of the ongoing processes during the transformation or integration of raw materials into the next production levels.

Through this approach the Integrated Process Control system, instead of requiring external experts to analyze the process, will allow through DISIRE to perform auto reconfiguration of all production lines with information from the products themselves.

To evolve, in terms of sustainability, the existing industrial processes of multiple industrial sectors (ferrous, non-ferrous, chemical and steel industries) through energy and resource efficiency. 

Specifically, this will be done through the innovative technologies and concepts developed by the DISIRE technology platform in the field of Industrial Process Control (IPC), such as flue gas oxygen sensors, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of combustion and diagnostic techniques by imaging natural gas flame patterns.

DISIRE will create a specific Process Analysis Technology, capable of defining quality and performance requirements that, for the first time in the process industry, can be directly applied on the physical properties of the developed products.

CIRCE is leading the work aimed at improving combustion efficiency in cracking furnaces through advanced characterization of natural gas flames.
