Process Consulting – Stand Position 5

Process understanding is the key to process design. Our process engineers and chemists develop and select appropriate processes and find the optimum for each production step. With the help of process simulations we provide valuable information regarding process design. One advantage is that there is no need to interrupt the existing production processes. Furthermore to ensure that your processes and reactions are safely executed we cover a range of laboratory investigations, for example

  • physico-chemical determination of material data under GLP,

  • registration of substances under REACH, and

  • classification of hazardous substances and dangerous goods

You benefit from an improved plant efficiency and lower operation costs. A higher plant availability and reliabilitiy strengthen your competitiveness.

Main Automation Vendor (MAV) and lifecycle concepts - Booth position 1

For the smooth realization of international projects, Siemens is an experienced partner to support customers in the chemical industry, either as Main Automation Vendor (MAV) or Main Electrical Vendor (MEV). The solutions cover the fundamental technology from the design and engineering stages to maintenance as well as the delivery of a safe, reliable and low-maintenance automation platform with unified equipment (unique look & feel).

A MAV concept as shown at Achema minimizes coordination through one single point of contact and reduces interfaces between different vendors. That leads to simplification in plant and project management, less expenditure of time, and reduced spare parts inventory and training efforts. Finally, significant cost-savings and greater investment protection over the entire plant lifecycle can be achieved.

Simulation for virtual commissioning and training - Booth position 7

SIMIT is a powerful, scalable platform for simulating and testing automation projects, shown at Achema in the field of plant design.

SIMIT enables a higher project/software quality due to early testing. Thanks to reduced engineering errors, commissioning efforts decrease significantly as well as project duration, time-to-production and costs.

Additionally SIMIT enables to build-up training schemes. Improved operators skills and plant knowledge enable to reach faster plant operation excellence. It supports virtual commissioning through a comprehensive set of features, covering simulation of controllers (hardware/software), signals, devices (actuators and sensors), communication busses, as well as processes. Testing becomes independent from real components availability and avoids possible damages on equipment. Malfunctions and critical situation can also be simulated in order to increase system reliability.
