Building a Portfolio of Sustainability
At the 2022 ARC Industry Forum, a session Building a Portfolio for Sustainability was hosted by ARC Advisory Group’s Peter Reynolds, and included AspenTech’s Paige Morse to discuss the role of operational analytics & optimization in driving sustainable operations performance improvements.
How High-Temperature Tolerant Flue Gas Analyzers Simplify Continuous Emissions Monitoring
It is difficult to find a process industry application that doesn’t burn some kind of fuel to generate heat. And where there’s combustion, environmental regulators won’t be far behind because industrial-scale fired heaters, boilers, and other processes invariably...
Improving Quality in Midstream Lithium Production
The midstream part of the lithium value chain involves manufacturing the Cathode, Anode, Electrolyte, and Separator. We will focus on the cathode, anode, and electrolyte in this series of posts. The process for making the Cathode, Anode, and Electrolyte is very similar. The process involves batch reactors and mixing.
Effective Radar Level Measurement in Reactor Applications
In a World of Chemicals article, Improving Process Batch Performance in the Chemical Industry, Emerson’s Varshneya Sridharan shares considerations for effective level measurement in both batch and continuous processes.
Chemical Industry Solutions for Safety Performance Improvements
In an AIChE recorded webinar, Digital Innovations for Improving Safety in Chemical Plants, Emerson’s Michael Machuca and Marty McDonough highlight was to drive safety improvements for this important industry.
One Package to Simplify Growing Sensor Deployments
Historically, differing asset monitoring devices, even if mounted on the same installation, might have very different ways of sending their data or configuration methods. Such a situation leaves project teams in a bind—do they stick with only one type of sensor,...
Driving Repeatable Chemical Manufacturing Batch Operations
In a recorded webinar, Achieving Repeatable Golden Batch Outcomes, Chemical Engineering magazine’s Scott Jenkins hosts Emerson’s Michael Machuca and Marty McDonough to discuss some of the automation solutions that can improve the Right First Time metric.
A Step Closer to Plug-and-Play Engineering with Module Type Package
In the chemical industry, manufacturers often need to change operations or accommodate new products to meet customer demand. However, the extensive integration efforts required to connect manufacturing equipment and automation systems often complicate engineering,...
Emerson’s Solids Level Measurement Solutions Help Lime Plant Operate Safer and More Efficiently
Advanced automation technology from Emerson is helping to solve a range of solids level measurement challenges at a large lime processing plant in the US. The need to reduce costs and increase operational efficiency is driving greater adoption of automation...
Remote Proof-Testing of Level Measurement Devices Supports Safer Tank Operations
Storage tanks containing hazardous materials require safety instrumented systems (SIS) to prevent overfills. Digital technology in the latest level measurement devices used in SIS enables them to be proof-tested remotely, which provides significant advantages. The...
Driving Sustainable Operations with Advanced Process Controls
At the Carbon Black World 2021 conference, Emerson’s Tiffany Tang presents with Tokai CB’s Roshan Ali, Mission Possible – Reaching Net-Zero Carbon Emissions with Advanced Process Control.
