COCO (CAPE-OPEN to CAPE-OPEN) is a free-of-charge CAPE-OPEN compliant steady-state simulation environment consisting of the following components:
- COFE – the CAPE-OPEN Flowsheet Environment is an intuitive graphical user interface to chemical flowsheeting. COFE has sequential solution algorithm using automatic tear streams. COFE displays properties of streams, deals with unit-conversion and provides plotting facilities.

EMSO (Environment for Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization) is a graphical environment where the user can model complex processes simply selecting and connecting the equipment models. ALSOC Project develops and maintains state-of-the-art this software and distributes it at no cost to the universities and partner companies. The main features of EMSO follows:

Welcome to Chemical Engineer Space!
This is a blog support for a free host about tips related to Chemical Engineering. Here I will try to share a little of my knowledge in this area, mainly in the academic point of view. Let me introduce myself: I am a Brazilian Chemical Engineer and nowadays I am taking my Masters in Modeling and Simulation of processes. Read more of this >>
