The environment is considered a hybrid resource since it has a real portion (industrial network) and a simulated one (process) with all measurement and control signals also real. It is possible to reproduce different industrial process dynamics without being required any physical network modification, enabling simulation of some situations that exist in a real industrial environment. This feature testifies the environment flexibility. In this work, a distillation column is simulated through HYSYS R with all its variables measured and controlled by Foundation Fieldbus devices / O principal objetivo deste trabalho ? desenvolver um ambiente que permite a comunica??o do simulador de processos qu?micos HYSYS R com medidores e atuadores de uma rede industrial Foundation Fieldbus. O ambiente ? considerado h?brido por possuir uma parte real (a rede industrial) e uma parte simulada (o processo) com os sinais de controle e medi??o sendo reais. O ambiente ? bastante flex?vel, permitindo a reprodu??o de diversas din?micas t?picas de processos industriais sem a necessidade de altera??o na rede f?sica, possibilitando gerar diversas situa??es existentes em um ambiente industrial real. No presente trabalho, a din?mica utilizada ? de uma coluna de destila??o, simulada no HYSYS R, com suas vari?veis medidas e controladas pelos dispositivos da rede industrial Foundation Fieldbus
