Chemical plants rely on continuous and batch production processes, each posing different requirements for a control system. A continuous process calls for a robust and stable control system that will not fail and cause the shutdown of a production line, whereas the emphasis with a batch process is on having a control system that allows great flexibility in making adjustments to formulas, procedures, and the like. Both kinds of systems need to be managed in available quality history of product, and to be able to execute non-routine operations. With its extensive product portfolio, experienced systems engineers, and global sales and service network, EPSILON LIMA has a solution for every plant process.
Petrochemical companies’ needs are extremely diverse. To come out ahead in today’s highly competitive marketplace, producers are striving to improve quality and productivity. EPSILON LIMA provides tailor-made solutions for these needs based on its long and wide-ranging experience in this field.
The EPSILON LIMA provides plantwide automation solutions that enable the agile and flexible control of petrochemical production workflows and that are fully integrated with a safety instrumented system.
Production Control System: BernXennon®The BernXennon® integrated control system secures interruption-free “uptime only” plant performance for optimal productivity and profitability.
Whether you produce Petrochemicals, Inorganics or Intermediates, you are under constant cost and margin pressure to deliver products to your customer in a timely and efficient manner while maintaining safe and compliant operations. Additionally, you need to adjust to constant feedstock and energy prices and be able to provide the most profitable product mix to the market.
EPSILON LIMA has been serving the bulk chemical market globally and is the recognized leader in this market. With products, solutions, and industry expertise, EPSILON LIMA understands your market and production needs and will work with you to provide a reliable, and cost effective solution through the lifecycle of your plant.
The chemical industry is highly specialized, with plants producing intermediate products, out from raw materials, that, in turn, are used by other plants as inputs in their production of more advanced products. Each chemical company needs to carefully consider its positioning in a highly competitive marketplace.
Producers in the specialty and fine chemical market face many challenges. Research driven innovation and the rapid introduction to market of products to meet your customer’s needs is the key to profitability. Additionally, you must also be looking into the future to meet the requirements for products and solutions for your customers tomorrow.
EPSILON LIMA has long served customers in the specialty and fine chemicals market. With a market leading batch solution that offers the best in class reliability and flexibility as well as industry experts who understand the complex requirements in designing a batch solution, you can be assured that in your partnership with EPSILON LIMA you will have a system that will enable you to produce products that meet your customers’ needs in the future while maintaining safety and regulatory compliance.
Chemical companies specify strict requirements regarding not only the quality of their products but also the necessary production processes. Amongst other things, this applies to the design, installation and automation of the process plants used in these "regulated" branches of the chemical industry.
Specialty and fine chemicals are typically produced by batch processes. The production systems at such plants must be flexible to accommodate a wide range of products. With its ISA-88 based batch functionality, EPSILON LIMA’s comprehensive control solution, the BernXennon® integrated production control system, matches up well with this requirement. For analysis of process and product quality, batch performance data must be stored in a readily accessible format. The ISA-88 based Exaquantum/Batch information management system collects, saves, displays, and reports current and historical performance data on batch production, equipment, and recipes. Also, the LIMApilot online navigation tool helps operators reliably execute non-routine procedures such as plant shutdown and startup.
Production Control System: BernXennon®Chemical batch processes require batch operation and some of them are multipurpose which allow multiple products to be manufactured. This necessitates the use of a comprehensive batch control system. TROL BX, integrated production control system supplies batch functions based on the ISA-88 Batch standard.
