n today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, the pursuit of enhanced performance, substantial investments, and a commitment to eco-sustainability are paramount for any operating or manufacturing company. Achieving these goals often hinges on optimizing the consumption of resources and energy, encompassing water, air, gas, electricity, and steam, collectively referred to as WAGES.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of the chemical industry, the adoption of edge computing and IIoT technologies is gaining momentum.
Heavy-duty and commercial transport are notorious for their significant contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, particularly in the European Union, where they account for a staggering 27% of total road transport emissions. However, there’s a promising solution on the horizon that’s set to revolutionize this sector – hydrogen fuel cell technology.
In the realm of Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) manufacturing, where diverse equipment and production lines are the norm, the challenges of connectivity and coordination are ever-present. However, solutions are now within reach. In my September 2023 article for Machine Design, titled “Digital Transformation: Guidelines for CPG Industry Implementations,” I delve into how Emerson’s cutting-edge technologies are revolutionizing the landscape for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), systems integrators (SIs), and end users by enabling seamless Floor to Cloud™ architectures.
Silvia Gonzalez explores how Emerson Movicon.NExT™ augmented reality (AR) technology is revolutionizing human-machine interfaces (HMI) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. The article highlights how AR interfaces, delivered through devices like tablets and AR goggles, empower industrial operators in various ways. Operators can follow step-by-step instructions, receive training, and access data from hazardous areas safely.
In a recent edition of Control Engineering magazine, I had the opportunity to discuss a very unique and interesting case study involving a new water system in the world’s largest greenfield city, NEOM. I’d like to share some of the details of that article with you....
