Transform Your Processes. Drive Sustainable Impact.

DEISO combines advanced process engineering and AI-powered analysis to optimize systems, reduce emissions, and drive sustainable industrial performance.

The Role of Process Engineering in Environmental Sustainability

Process engineering is one of the most critical disciplines for addressing global environmental challenges. It provides the scientific and technical foundation for designing, optimizing, and improving industrial systems — enabling industries to reduce environmental impact, enhance energy efficiency, and integrate sustainability at the process level.

Unlike general engineering disciplines that focus on outputs or structures, process engineering zeroes in on the transformation of materials, energy, and chemicals through controlled systems. These systems are responsible for manufacturing nearly everything we consume — from fuel and pharmaceuticals to food, semiconductors, and building materials.

In the age of climate crisis, resource scarcity, and ESG-driven transformation, process engineering plays an irreplaceable role in:

🌍 Reducing GHG emissions through cleaner process design and energy recovery systems
♻️ Enhancing material circularity by designing recovery, reuse, and recycling stages into process flows
📉 Lowering carbon and water footprints using integrated simulation and LCA modeling
🧮 Supporting compliance with LCA standards, EPD frameworks, and ESG disclosure requirements
🧠 Advancing innovation through AI-powered optimization, predictive control, and dynamic simulation

Process engineers today must consider not only operational efficiency and cost, but also how their systems align with:

ISO 14040/44 and ISO 14067 (LCA and carbon footprinting)
EN15804 (for EPDs in construction and industrial products)
Corporate ESG metrics and disclosure platforms
Climate neutrality and net-zero targets

Engineering Toolchain & File Formats Commonly Used in Process Engineering Projects

To execute high-quality process engineering and sustainability-driven modeling, engineers must leverage a comprehensive toolchain — one that ensures interoperability between simulation software, CAD models, and sustainability analysis platforms. At DEISO, our engineering workflows are structured to accept and operate across a variety of technical file formats that support deep modeling, cross-team collaboration, and process transparency.

We work with and support the following file types and software categories:

Aspen Plus (.bkp) – Used for steady-state process simulation, often in chemical manufacturing and utilities.
Aspen HYSYS (.hsc, .prz) – Ideal for oil & gas, LNG, and complex thermodynamic systems.
AutoCAD (.dwg) and SolidWorks (.sldprt, .sldasm) – For equipment modeling, piping, pressure vessels, and 3D plant design.
STEP / IGES – Exchange formats for CAD interoperability in equipment and assembly designs.
PFDs / P&IDs – Core engineering deliverables representing flow structure and instrumentation control.
LCA files (.lci, .ecoSpold v1 and v2, Zolca) – Used to integrate life cycle inventory data and simulate sustainability outcomes.
CSV, Excel, and JSON – Data formats that enable batch data import/export, interoperability with dashboards, and compatibility with DEISO Visly/Satori AI.
Simulation Data Logs – Structured outputs used for process control, PID tuning, and performance tracking over time.

At DEISO, we follow a 5-phase project workflow to ensure clarity, performance alignment, and measurable outcomes across every engineering engagement. This workflow allows us to move from strategy to implementation with engineering precision, while embedding environmental intelligence at every step.

Phase 1: Discovery Meeting

We begin with a focused stakeholder session to understand the full picture: project goals, system constraints, regulatory context, sustainability objectives (e.g., emission targets, EPD requirements), and desired outcomes. This ensures our modeling scope aligns with real-world operational expectations.

Phase 2: Data & Site Collection

Our engineers collect structured baseline data — from flow rates and thermal profiles to equipment specs, material inputs, and emissions data. We also collect metadata needed for LCA, GHG reporting, and compliance.

Phase 3: Simulation & LCA Modeling

We then simulate your process systems using tools like Aspen Plus, HYSYS, or custom-coded models. At this stage, we embed LCA parameters, emission factors, and energy balances into the process logic to identify critical environmental hotspots and efficiency gaps.

Phase 4: Visualization & Reporting

Outputs are converted into visual dashboards, LCA impact tables, Sankey diagrams, and ESG-focused analytics. Using DEISO Visly and Satori AI, we present decision-ready insights for engineers, managers, and sustainability teams alike.

Phase 5: Final Delivery & Support

We deliver not only the technical package — models, reports, diagrams — but also conduct structured training for your internal team. This ensures long-term operability, adaptability, and value capture across departments.

Data, Visualized: Dashboards That Drive Action

Data is only useful when it leads to action. That’s why DEISO transforms technical simulation, LCA modeling, and emissions tracking into interactive dashboards and visual reports — empowering teams across your organization to engage, respond, and improve processes continuously.

Our dashboard systems are powered by DEISO Visly and Satori AI, purpose-built to support sustainability-linked process engineering. These platforms translate complex technical models into intuitive interfaces that connect engineering outputs to key decision metrics.
