Using the simulator
3What the model does, what it deliberately does not do, and how to read each output.
What is cbg-sim?sourced
cbg-sim is a free, India-first plant builder and steady-state model. You place blocks on a canvas - feedstock into a digester, gas through a scrubber and compressor, out to an offtake - and watch margin, payback, CBG sold, the process envelope and the supply calendar move as you change it. It is explicit about what it models and what it does not.
Do I need an account?sourced
No. Building, simulating and touring a plant need no account. Saving a named project, sharing a link and generating a brief do, because those outlive the tab - but the tool works fully before you sign in.
How do I start quickly?sourced
Three ways. Describe the plant in a sentence - something like 5 TPD napier and pressmud near Jewargi - and a sized, wired plant appears with numbers running. Or start from an empty canvas and place blocks yourself. Or use the quick calculator for yield, cost and land without the canvas at all.
