Управление производством

  • Интеграция с MES-системами
    Домен систем Управления Производством (или MES уровень) включает в себя ряд отдельных систем профильного назначения, таких как система календарного планирования. Уровень функциональной связанности между такими системами является ключевой характеристикой для обеспечения гибкого управления.
  • Стандартизация порядка работ
    Для надёжного управления производством, процедуры проведения рабочих процессов должны быть чётко и ясно изложены, а их исполнение и актуальность постоянно контролироваться. Стандартизация рабочих процессов приобретает ещё большую ценность и важность для компаний, со множественными производственными активами. 
  • Управление производством в реальном времени
    Для ускорения и точного соблюдения цикла «планирование-выполнение-проверка-контроль исполнения» (ПВПК - PDCA) требуется внедрение общезаводского оперативного управления

    

Управление ТП

  • Настройка контуров управления
    Идентификация процессов и ПИД-регулирование играет основополагающую роль в область управления технологическим процессом. Все контура управления должны быть правильно настроены для обеспечения стабильного управления. Правильная настройка работы контуров также является обязательным условием перехода к использованию систем СУУТП. 
  • Усовершенствованное управление (СУУТП)
    Системы Усовершенствованного Управления Технологическим Процессом и системы контроля на основе знаний являются ключевыми компонентами для эффективной автоматизации производства.  
  • Оптимизация в реальном времени (RTO)

Производственная среда

  • Обучение операторов
    Системы обучения и тренировки операторов обеспечивают возможность операторам нарабатывать навыки работы и поведения в различных возможных ситуациях, таких как отказ оборудования или систем, а также отрабатывать сложные операции, такие как запуск или остановка процесса, которые в реальной работе производятся не часто. Это помогает расширить и укрепить знания и навыки операционного персонала.    
  • Проектирование операторных
    При проектировании помещения управления необходимо учитывать все требования по организации рабочего пространства, такие как эргономика, безопасность, удобство общения, функциональность рабочих мест, уровень автоматизации и соблюдение политик компании.    
  • Оптимизация ресурсов
    Создание централизованной операторной является желательным решением для обеспечения эффективной среды управления. Все подразделения, непосредственно связанные с производством должны располагаться в актуальной близости друг от друга для обеспечения эффективного взаимодействия. Кроме централизации помещения управления, желательно рассмотреть возможность оптимизации размещения персонала и характер выполнения других мероприятий, в стремлении достичь Совершенства Производства.

This paper discusses real industrial examples in which the sitewide utilities system of refinery and petrochemical Sites are optimized with a real time, on line, industrially proven software. Experiences gained during more than 20 years of industrial projects deployed worldwide are commented (Refs. 1 to 10 are related to some recent projects). Main project steps are explained and critical details to be taken into account to assure successful use and proper technology transfer are presented. Specific case studies will be discussed in the paper.

Utilities and energy systems are often the major source of SOx, NOx and CO2 emissions, therefore, emissions control and the management of credits and quotas are tightly interrelated with energy management.

In the case of refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants, energy represents the main cost (second to feedstock) and therefore its reduction has become a bottom line business decision. The energy systems at these sites are inherently complex, with the emissions cost analysis and limits compliance introducing an additional factor to the complexity of the energy costs reduction challenge.

Process plants use different type of fuels, they often operate cogeneration units, their steam networks consist of several pressure levels, there are different types of energy consumers and there are emission limits to be observed. Import or export of electricity in deregulated markets, which could also be traded off with more or less CO2 and other contaminant gaseous emissions, increase the optimization problem complexity.

After a feasibility study, Repsol YPF decided to apply a model-based predictive controller to a batch reactor producing polyols. The predictive controller for reactors (PCR) is a set of control modules that are designed to face most of the reactor configurations. The important increase of production is a consequence of the better handling of the reactor temperature. Here's a description of the unit and control objectives, methodology, project steps, results and the corresponding benefits.

Big and complex industrial facilities like Refineries and Petrochemicals are becoming increasingly aware that power systems need to be optimally managed because any energy reduction that Operations accomplish in the producing Units could eventually be wasted if the overall power system cost is not properly managed. However, process engineers always attempted to develop some kind of tools, many times spreadsheet based, to improve the way utilities systems were operated. The main drawback of the earlier attempts was the lack of data: engineers spent the whole day at phone or visiting the control rooms to gather information from the Distributed Control System (DCS) data historian, process it at the spreadsheet and produce recommendations that, when ready to be applied, were outdated and not any more applicable.

ISA S88.01 provides great benefit to users and vendors by solidifying batch operating models and standardizing batch control terminology. On the other hand, as befits an industry-wide standard, ISA S88.01 leaves great flexibility for individual users to apply their own project practices and implementation methodology. Even when utilizing ISA S88.01 models and terminology, many pitfalls remain for those who implement batch controls and recipe management without thinking ahead. Real-world project experience has demonstrated a number of design and implementation "lessons" which might be overlooked to the eventual grief of the batch engineer.

The S88.02 draft standard defines a means for depicting procedural control in master and control recipes. This depiction method is called a Procedural Function Chart (PFC). This standard depiction is based on the requirements of S88.01, technical report ISA-TR88.0.03-1996, user requirements, previous standards and commonly used procedure depiction methods in use today. PFCs can provide a common basis for the exchange of recipes, reduce the learning curve between control systems, and establish a common ground for improved human communication. This paper provides a brief overview of the development of PFCs, the rules for their use and some of the benefits expected by their adoption in the industry.

The case study in this paper illustrates the value of integrating front-end scheduling with a batch control system. Recipe changes, and addition of recipes, occur frequently in the target process. However, since both scheduler and batch packages were designed with the ISA-S88.01 model in mind, these packages could be tightly coupled (well integrated) – and, as a result, it is easy to add or change recipes. The front- end scheduler is not limited to performing scheduling; it also provides an easy-to-grasp real-time production status display which can help enhance efficiency and productivity.

As batch processes are automated, it is common to leave certain less essential field devices without automatic actuators. Thus, the initial control design must accommodate both automated and manual activities. Later, the manual field devices may be automated, either one-at-a-time or in related groups as equipment modules. These field changes, often occurring over a period of years, each require rework of the batch control logic, which can easily exceed the cost of the actuator. In response to this undesirable situation, a technique has been developed which permits the batch design to automatically modify itself, or evolve, to accommodate changes in field automation.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are used in batch processing industries as measurements of production performance. Their use is one element in the current trend of real-time performance management. A single KPI used as the primary measurement of production can cause other dimensions of production performance lose importance. When multiple KPIs are used to measure a batch's production performance it can be difficult to reconcile differences between them for individual batches or for groups of batches. KPIs based upon meeting a target, or specification, measure absolute performance yet do not provide relative information regarding how a batch performed against its peers. The peer comparisons are important for monitoring variability of production performance, which is a critical factor in documenting ROI.

The application of DCS-based "advanced controls" is a common method of achieving enhanced performance from continuous processes such as refinery units. However, it is less widely recognized, but nonetheless true, that modern DCS systems can include other software tools for the significant improvement of batch plant productivity, product quality, and economic performance. Due to the fundamental processing differences between the two types of plants, unique batch "advanced control" features are required which are different from those used for continuous plants.
