Céondo - Fluid Phase Equilibria, Chemical Properties & Databases

My plan was to spend two hours to wrap the Cheméo REST API as an MCP server.

My time sheet has a new line on it.

When Cheméo predicts a property, it gives you a number.

For years, when you asked Cheméo to predict a property, the answer came from Joback.

On the property prediction and similarity search pages of Cheméo, you draw a molecule and the server takes it from there.

Yesterday I had my first meeting as a member of the CAPE-OPEN Interop SIG.

Last week I pulled just under six days of access logs off the Cheméo server.

Back in the thermodynamic code I keep writing lately, one tiny problem shows up in every single iteration of a flash calculation.

These last months, I have been deep amine gas treatement systems.

Here in Germany, running a GmbH means signing more and more things electronically.

After nearly 20 years of Céondo, time for a refresh, and the refresh started with the logo.

The work started in 2023 and developed so well that for the sugar business, I am now exclusively working for Pfeifer & Langen IP GmbH, under the brand name Sucrosphere.

TIL - Today I Learned (Again) At present, I find myself tackling some rather complex issues related to an Amines gas treatment simulation.

We improved the API of Cheméo and added more data!

More data was what we promised, this is what you get!

Together with Marcus we improved quite a lot the website in the past month.

It is a great pleasure to announce a major update of Cheméo.

This is a pleasure to announce that Cheméo is now used by the DOME 4.0 platform.

For each customer requiring some work to be done on a Windows system, I am running a virtual machine.

Since 2007, Céondo has been a one man show.

This is a bit of Fortran you find in many simulations: DO I=1,NVALS IF (RNDVALS(I).GT.CUT) THEN DTMP = RNDVALS(I) ELSE DTMP = CUT END IF LOGVALS(I) = LOG(DTMP) END DO Or without the saving in the temporary DTMP variable.

In this simulation, we took special care not to harm any chemical compounds.

First, I really enjoy working with Fortran as a language.

After a bit more than three months under this strange situation, I can only say that I am lucky.

Nothing particular with respect to the global situation.

A part of my job is programming special unit operations in PRO/II.

Sometimes one needs to say things one never imagined one would say: Thank you Microsoft for the code editor I am using under Linux!

Since 2005, I am mostly working from my home office, both as an employee for about 2 years and as a consultant for 10 years.

Now that you are all back at work, this is the perfect time to wish everybody all the best for 2018.

Thank you for the very nice year working with many people doing great work.

Today, the French Ministry of Environment announced that they will vote against the renewal of the market authorization of the Glyphosate in the EU.

Security is a moving target.

In Spring 2007, I decided to start Céondo, at that time I had some ideas about the things I wanted to do, but was not totally sure about them.

In the past few weeks, my laptop suffered from very annoying random restarts.

To be really productive for my customers I have, over the years, adapted my work setup to my needs.

Already a month in, in France this is the last day to wish everybody all the best for 2017.

After a long year, with a lot done and probably even more to be done in 2017, we all need a good break for Christmas.

For the last 3 days, I have been living within Windows Update.

Fortran is really a nice language when it comes to scientific computations.

Nowadays, with the cloud, you have a large number of companies offering backup solutions for your computers.

The work on the desktop component of Cheméo, Cheméo Studio, is continuing.

Now, we know why Bayer decided to sell the material science part of the company to create Covestro: they simply wanted to buy Monsanto.

The work on the desktop component of Cheméo, Cheméo Studio, is nicely going ahead.

Short break for Easter, from Friday the 25th of March to the 3rd of April, the phone calls will not be taken.

If Cheméo usage of the chemical property prediction tool is growing, some users would like to run the predictions on their own desktop.

With the time, the usage of Cheméo is growing, this is nice, but for the users to be happy, the speed of the system must stay the same or improve.

Good feeling, the Cheméo crawler is now crawling again the web.

Winter is here but the weather feels way more like spring.

Tomorrow the 4th of December, Telekom is supposed to switch us on the new 100Mbps connection powered with the so called vectoring technology.

Since the release of the Cheméo API the API starts to be used.
