挑戰

客戶面臨的挑戰

化工公司不僅對產品質量有嚴格的要求,而且對產品工業也有嚴格的規定。這也適用於化工行業規範分支的流程工廠的設計、安裝和自動控制。

我們的解決方案

特種和精細化工產品通常用批量製程生產。為了適應範圍更廣的產品,這類工廠的生產系統必須非常靈活。憑借基於ISA-88的批處理功能,橫河電機的綜合控制解決方案CENTUM VP集散生產控制系統可以很好地滿足要求。在製程分析和產品質量方面,批次性能數據必須以易於訪問的格式存儲。批量生產、設備和配方的現狀和曆史性能數據被基於ISA-88Exaquantum / Batch信息管理系統收集、保存、顯示和報告。同時Exapilot在線導航工具可幫助操作員可靠執行諸如停車和啟動等非常規程序。

使能技術

生產控制系統:CENTUM VP批量控制系統
化工產品批處理需要批量操作,其中一些具有功能性,可以制造多種不同產品,而實現這些需要使用縝密的批量控制系統。集散生產控制系統CENTUM VP,提供基於ISA-88 Batch標準的批處理功能。

客戶面臨的挑戰

如電力、蒸汽、壓縮空氣能源的採購成本和可用性是不斷變化的,特别是在大型工廠,它們是能源效率管理(EEM)的關鍵參數。

使能技術

明確的行動建議

工廠能效管理系統(PEEMS)是橫河電機深入研究、全方位考慮後的EEM解決方案,可根據工廠的能耗提供合適的解決方案。

上述圖表清楚地表明橫河電機解決方案的基本原理和架構,通製這些操作可以幫助客戶提高EEM

從現場層面(能源儀表)到製程層面(控制系統或緊湊型定制信息系統)MES層面(能耗分析和評估),橫河電機提供一套整體能源解決方案,就好像是一個自動化金字塔

然而,在製程工業中,確定和實現工廠的潛在成本削減有四個基本條件:
1.一個數據量龐大且合格的數據庫
2.智能數據分析和說明
3.清晰可視化結果
4.明確且有意義的行動方案

所有相關能源流的概述

目的是通製評估原始數據儘可能自動推導出最合適的能源使用方案然後以結構化形式將這些方案傳達給相關操作人員。這是一個優勢,用熟悉的流程圖像解決工廠操作員的問題,並為他們提供容易理解的能量流概覽。為了這個目的需要一個其他的指標,類似於Sankey中的箭頭。

在多級菜單中提供了詳細的補充信息。直觀的配色方案清晰的屏幕布局和簡單的圖標使關鍵分析結果能夠快速準確地被理解吸收。對於負責橫河新的工廠能效管理系統PEEMS)的研發團隊來說,易理解是首要被考慮的。

專用信息製濾器

企業決定運行EEM系統時,必須同時考慮當工廠擴和複雜增加時,EEM系統的擴展性。在極端情況下,一個基於記錄儀的小系統可以逐步發展為使用獨立PLC進行控制,並最終引入製程控制系統。EEM製程的結構 - 通常是能量優化操作的最重要手段 - 保持完整無缺,因此需要有意識的保留和擴展這種技術。

EMM系統不是取代工廠操作員的自動操作儀。相反,一系列其他參數,例如安全性原材料質量、特殊產品質量、生產效率和生產能力要求的可用組合都有著至關重要的影響。該系統就像是操作員輔助工具,集成以下重要功能:
1.比較趨勢和能量優化操作
2.向工廠操作員顯示,切換到不同的操作模式能節省多少能量
3.必要的時候,幫助操作員完成從現有操作模式到優化操作模式的轉換

為了圓滿完成這些任務,需要滿足幾個條件:可靠、有意義的數據庫對數據的結構和優先級的說明,清晰且易於理解的可視化結果以及推薦一個或多個行動方案。

除了滿足這些要求,橫河電機的EEM系統可以最大限度地提高效率和降低成本,同時最大限度地減少工廠操作員的額外負荷

摘要:

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.

摘要:

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.

摘要:

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.

摘要:

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.

摘要:

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.

摘要:

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.

摘要:

ARC believes that by implementing procedural automation, many process plants can minimize variability to help ensure smooth, efficient, and safe state transitions.
