Enable Top Quartile Performance Using Process Optimization Solutions
All process plants have opportunities for improving the process performance of their unit operations, from reactors and distillation columns to fractionators, fired heaters and others. All plants have the potential for reducing variability—hence improving product quality, increasing unit or plant availability and capacity, or reducing energy and material usage.
Emerson’s SmartProcess suite of applications optimize major unit operations using Model Predictive Control (MPC). MPC uses dynamic models of the process, and a record of its past behavior, to predict how the process will behave in the future. These predictions are then used to determine an optimum sequence of control actions that ensure all process control objectives are achieved simultaneously.
