heal.abstract	Computer - aided process engineering has made considerable progress during the last decades in the fields of process analysis, synthesis, design and control. In order to study the response of the Bayer Process to various changes in its parameters, a simulation tool was developed in the Laboratory of Metallurgy, N.T.U.A.. The tool (ProcesSim) was developed using an object oriented programming language (Microsoft VC++). It can be run under any MS-Windows 32-bit operating system. The simulation tool was developed so that it could easily be operated by anyone with a minimum working knowledge of Windows and that no programming experience should be required. The result of this effort is a complete graphical user interface, which is easy to use and yet gives the flexibility to explore the different possibilities in the flow-sheet design. Because of the modular approach, the same tool is currently being developed so that it can be applied to simulate other steady state hydrometallurgical processes as well. An example is presented showing the close agreement of the simulation results with data from the bibliography and an alumina plant.	en
