Hunter, Vice President - NFPA 85 Boiler & CombustionSystems, Synergy SystemsSynergy’s client, BP, proactively sought improvements on safe,reliable and more eicient operations. The company faced challengesrelated to its dual-gas fuel multi-boiler control system (4 boilers) ina United States-based research and development campus complex.The lack of a central control room meant that a boiler trip had tobe manually identiied, inadequate monitoring meant the causecould not be efectively determined and corrective action couldnot be timely and properly implemented due to the proprietarycontrol system. Synergy implemented the PlantPAx system, astandard platform, which helped eliminate false trips. The RockwellAutomation Library of Process Objects provided a consistent userinterface across all boilers leading to decreased operational costs.Improved combustion eiciency decreased energy costs by nearly10%. Real-time reporting improved visibility plant-wide and enabledcompliance with EPA and provided assurance of NFPA regulations.

CS06 - Braskem Uses Model Predictive Controlto Improve Polymer ProductionGustavo Alberto Neumann, Industrial AutomationCoordinator, BraskemIsadora de Souza Moreira, Process Control Engineer, BraskemPetrochemical company Braskem implemented virtual onlineanalyzers and model predictive controllers, using Pavilion8 ModelPredictive Control (MPC). After selecting and reining processdata of industrial polymerization reactors, Braskem obtainedmodels through advanced process control. Steady state gains wereobtained using hybrid models, a combination of Neural Networksand phenomenological equations. Braskem used industrial data toidentify dynamics transfer functions, which allowed it to determinetime response. Conigured nonlinear online inferences helpedoperators estimate the future behavior of low sampling rate variablesand served as a controlled variable inside the predictive controller.Braskem’s investment in MPC technology has paid of, and hashelped it increase production by 3%, improve quality by 50%, andsave 6% on raw materials.CS07 - Virtualized PlantPAx SystemImproves Batch ManagementRafael Pezzella Chiea, Sales Manager, IASTECHA global beverage company decided to invest in an automatedbatching solution to improve batch control and traceability in amanual production facility.
