Plant Optimization
The current global economic conditions have made product lifecycles of chemicals much shorter. In the "good old days" one could set up a chemical manufacturing unit and expect it to produce the same product or the same family of products, for something like 50 years.
Not so now. Unfortunately, those days are long gone now. Many products are now having shorter and shorter lifecycles. Cost pressures also mean that continuous optimization of the process (reduction in specific consumptions, reduction in energy usage, less manpower to produce more, etc) is a necessity and not an academic exercise.
We have been doing these optimization exercises for several plants for several years now. The following are a few sample case studies for illustration.
Case 1: Re-engineering a process plant to produce a different class of product
A client wishes to evaluate the possibility of shutting down production of a line of chemical products and using the same assets with minor modifications and some additional assets to produce another line of products.
The client needs advice on the following:
- Feasibility of re-engineering the existing assets
- Automation architecture for the re-engineered production plant
- Conversion Cost of the new product after re-engineering
- View on engagement of engineering consultant for detail engineering
Case 2: Reduction in Energy Consumptions & Costs
A client has an older process that uses a lot of energy per kilogram of finished product. Newer plants that are more energy efficient have an edge and may soon put the plant out of business. The client needs advice on
- Feasibility of optimizing the process to reduce the energy consumption
- Using energy recovery methods to reduce the total energy consumption
- Using non conventional energy sources to reduce total energy costs
