Global Corporate-Plant-wide Process and Power Plant Utilities Energy Conservation and de-bottlenecking and power generation, distribution cost reduction and waste heat recovery, co-generation power plant design, operations optimization and cost control
Join our full day workshop find out what, why, how to de-bottlenecking without equipment retrofit: Saving up to 20-50 % utility and process energy, raised up 20- 50 % production without energy increase

Join our full day oil/gas upstream downstream future prices, procurement strategy workshop save billions energy procurement supply chain cost 

Power plant distribution network optimal control, cost reduction The causes, onset, recovery, early warning, prevention of Power Blackout Crisis

Applications: Rigorous process plant utility (nuclear, fossil ) and energy process design, operations simulation systems have been developed and implemented for fossil, nuclear power plant , refinery, olefin, styrene, caprolactum, nylon, polyester fibers mills and process plant daily energy conservation waste heat recovery co-generation operations management, investment risks analysis, plant design, construction,  operations control strategic support to daily plant generation, distribution cost reductions and safety, emergency accident crisis simulation application. They provide reduced unit energy consumption and billion dollar fuel supply chain procurement  cost reduction through improved fuel supply chain  strategy utilities and process energy conservation operations and debottle-necking, safety, maintainance, automation for early warning of power plant blackout, operating staff on the job training simulator.

Strategy: Goal, mission and performance oriented cross-departmental energy OSA ( Operations Simulations Analysis) teams (or SBU) develop, implement daily decisions simulators for process power plant boilers, heaters fuel conservation waste recovery and steam consumption maximize power generation efficiency and demand forecasts. power distribution network optimization

Maximum product recovery at minimum energy usage optimal combined cycle generation efficiency can be in simultaneously by OSA-based reactors yields and fractionation systems operations improvement.

These artificial intelligence experts systems based integrated systems rigorous models have been developed out of the entire operating history and plant / distribution network operators, technical staff's operating expertise as the knowledge base.

These systems cover normal, emergency operations, the full range feedstock compositions and operating network demand, severity change with average error below 1.5%: Features include:

* Feedstock and fuel prices simulation forecasts, procurement , inventory scheduling, blending  supply chain strategic analysis.

* Process. power plant  utilities unit's energy usage auditing, tracking conservation goal setting and improvement.

* Boiler, furnace optimum firing, improve high, medium pressure steam utilization and maximize condensate return

* Reactors and recovery units energy usage improvement and power generation debottlenecking

* Process plant  startup, emergency shutdown and troubleshooting simulations, and energy minimization

* Process/power plant energy equipment preventive safety, and maintenance for distribution  network blackout early warning, prevention

* Maximum product and waste heat recovery for co-generation at minimum energy and wastes pollution's

* Process utility and downstream energy users , power distribution network incident analysis:

* Process utility and pollution control staff on the job training.

The system is available on workstation , and PCs for corporate /plant daily online/offline CIM/APC/DCS applications

Economics: Up to 15- 50 % energy saved , or millions US dollars saved in energy costs annually without hardware investment

Commercial Applications: Two refinery, Three olefin, two capro-lactum, two styrene, two polyolefin, 12 fibers mills, 4 pulp and paper mills systems have been applied, 150 energy conservation workshops offered to government staff and plant managers
