The origins of ChemCAD date back to the 1960s, when it was initially developed at the as part of a U.S. government-sponsored project to develop process simulation software for synthetic fuels. The software was commercialized in 1988 when Chemstations acquired it and began global distribution.
Analyzing and recovering solvents in API production to reduce carbon footprint and costs.
Chemstations has uniquely tailored its licensing to scale with the user. Whether you are an independent environmental consultant needing basic pipe sizing or a multinational chemical company running complex dynamic distillation loops, CHEMCAD NXT’s modular licensing ensures you only pay for the capabilities you actually use.

CHEMCAD NXT bridges the gap between traditional process simulation capabilities and modern engineering software requirements. By combining steady-state, dynamic, equipment design, and safety modules into an intuitive platform, it gives engineers the tools necessary to tackle complex processing challenges efficiently. Whether designing a new greenfield facility or optimizing an existing chemical plant, CHEMCAD NXT offers the precision and flexibility demanded by the modern process industries.
Beyond simple sizing, NXT provides rigorous rating capabilities for heat exchangers (shell-and-tube, plate, air-cooled), distillation columns (packed and trayed), and chemical reactors. It predicts pressure drops, weeping, flooding, and thermal efficiencies using the latest empirical industrial standards. Industrial Applications Petrochemicals and Refining
