Loughborough University

Over the past few years, there has been a growing demand for Chemical and Process Engineering courses in the UK and globally. This surge in demand has led many universities to actively invest in Virtual Process Plant resources for their students. Loughborough University have invested in their undergraduate program by building our Interactive Virtual process Plant into their first and second year courses. They were keen to create an Immersive learning environment by using a 9m Dome Shared VR projection system from Igloo Vision.

We supplied a 3D Virtual process plant Reality Simulation of a Natural Gas Compressor System. The 3D simulation is driven by a dynamic process simulator and is operated remotely from a control room. The control room also has a number of other dynamic process simulations that fit into different parts of the undergraduate Chemical Engineering syllabus.

They are using it in various modules including:
