关于客户
Perstorp is a global leader in several sectors of the specialty chemicals market. Their primary products are additives for paints and coatings, plasticizers, solvents, lubricants, bleach chemicals and oil-drilling applications. In addition, they also produce feed additives and biodiesel. Aspen InfoPlus.21 has been used globally by Perstorp since 2006 and is one of the five largest IT applications in the company. They have nine Aspen InfoPlus.21 servers covering 40 plants with 50,000 tags, a total of 500 users and four Aspen Production Record Manager installations.
挑战
Perstorp, a global leader in the specialty chemicals market, wanted to visually understand in near real time how well their plants were meeting production goals relative to targets. They needed a system that could deliver important production KPIs, such as “Loss vs. Plan”, and allow the user to analyze production results in more detail. The company also wanted to implement features like automated emails and/or phone text messages that could be triggered either by events, such as plant shutdowns, or time-based (e.g. weekly reporting), which could be used for automatic ordering of some raw materials and predictive maintenance.
解决方案
Perstorp built the key performance indicator (KPI) production portal application using standard Aspen InfoPlus.21 tools — Aspen Calc and Aspen SQLplus — along with Microsoft® SharePoint as the portal. The visual displays built, showing the performance of all their plants, were impressive. At a glance, users can see current performance levels and possible areas for improvement. The KPI production portal is displayed in conference and meeting rooms at each of the plants to create awareness and focus employees on the importance of meeting production goals. Daily meetings are started using the daily production indicators, which display colors that quickly visualize each plant’s production performance.

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.

Field Device Asset Management For Chemical Company in China
Chinese chemical subsidiary of multinational corporation serves customers throughout the world. Sales offices and research and technology centers are strategically located to provide rapid response to customer requests. Just two workers were assigned to maintain thousands of intelligent instruments in three production units, so they could do little more than react to device issues as they appeared. This costly maintenance method inevitably led to unexpected downtime when a critical instrument failed. Plant management recognized the need to change from reactive to predictive maintenance for all assets, including instruments and control valves, but help was needed in implementing such a technology-based initiative.
