(115b) Utilizing a Digital Connected Platform to Improve Combustion Safety and Asset Reliability
AIChE Spring Meeting and Global Congress on Process Safety
2021
2021 AIChE Virtual Spring Meeting and 17th Global Congress on Process Safety
Topical 4: The 33rd Ethylene Producers Conference
Industry 4.0 in Ethylene Production II
Wednesday, April 21, 2021 - 3:10pm to 3:35pm
This paper will present OnPointâs Smart CombustionTM technology, EmberTM, that gathers real time plant data combined with John Zink derived combustion algorithms and data analytics to provide actionable insights to operators and engineers for improved combustion operations in process heating. EmberTM delivers real-time guidance for safe combustion operation over a range of changing process conditions within fired heaters and can detect deviations in certain process variables to alert operators when conditions are approaching potentially unsafe operating limits.
The case study will discuss how an end user is utilizing EmberTM to understand, in real-time, more detailed information about the combustion process leading to safer and more efficient and reliable operation. Increasing visibility of key parameters within the firebox, combined with key insights about the health and operation of each individual burner, is enabling operations to make simultaneous improvements of emissions, safety, throughput, reliability, and efficiency.
