Plant operators deal with massive amou= nts of data and systems to ensure optimal plant and process performance. Owner/operators typically place significant investments into mission-crit= ical systems such as DCS, SCADA, data historians and networks. Without an i= nformation gateway, it can sometimes be difficult to analyze the data provided by all of these systems in order to make fast and critical operational decisions.

To fully take advantage of the operati= onal information in which they’ve already invested, many leading owner/operators such as BASF, FMC Corporation and PPG Industrie= s have chosen FALCONEER™. This process performance software helps you use = real-time, 24= /7 data and achieve a quick return on investment in time sav= ings, cost savings, plant performance and safety.

FALCONEER’s decision support software adds intelligence to your plant engineering data by combinin= g it with the plant’s process knowledge. This helps you better mon= itor processes and improve process and design quality. Because it’s not what you know; it’s w= hen you know it that really counts.

UTILITY ASSE= SSMENT STUDY

A real-time system auditing the performance of all boilers= and continually evaluating KPI such boiler efficiency or the cost of steam production and advising when the operational parameters or KPIs begin to exceed some limit could provide a real benefit. This type of system, such as FALCONEER™ IV, could he= lp provide timely information to operators and engineers to allow them to act and either troubleshoot causes of this conditi= on and/or identify controlling parameters to guide optimization efforts.&nbs= p; It could also be continuously monitoring with respect to budgeted perform= ance and alert or advise on any deviations to help maintain low cost operation.

CUSTOMER QUOTES:

· One FMC Engineer stated, "One alert prevented= an upset that would have created product reject, and thus saved thousands of dollars."

· A senior engineer stated FALCONEER™ identifi= ed and advised of an improper change in operating conditions around a thermocompressor, saving $30,000 in steam costs.&nb= sp;

· Another chemical plant identified a faulty steam m= eter and provided a reconciled reading to reconcile and correct in-plant steam use, saving the unit from being overcharged almost $9,000 per month for 5 months until the meter was replaced.

Conceptual Design

With high de= mand for production facilities, plant owners need to make quick, sound decisio= ns when investing in these high-cost projects. Conceptual design plays a key role in this decision process. A conceptual design solution needs to offer fast-track execution and the flexibility to view different scenarios to ensure maximum return on the investment. The presenters will discuss extensions of SmartPlant Enterprise in the process design space. This con= cept works in conjunction with UNISIM, Honeywell’s process simulation product, to support business requirements. The session will cover the solution’s unique capabilities that support the EPC during this ear= ly and important phase. The new solution helps plant owners to make a clear “go or no go” decision for detailed design. Plus, the created concept design is directly usable as the starting point for detailed desi= gn, helping to jumpstart the project. In addition, FALCONEER Technologies wi= ll be introduced as the tool to help verify the design.

Engineering & Schematics: Design Validation

Ensuring the design is consistent acro= ss the various tasks and the engineering data is correct before ordering equipment and/or installing it is crucial for on-time production and budgeting. In this session, the presenter will share a few examples that = show how engineering and design can be verified early in the project. SmartPla= nt P&ID Design Validation shows the validation of the P&ID against t= he 3D model in designs made with PDMS modeling tools. This process can= be optimized with FALCONEER and SmartPlant P&ID to make sure that the process is running optimally in terms of controls, energy usage, and statistical analysis for quickly identifying adjustments to optimize plant mass balance.
