Application of On-line Data Analytics to a Continuous Process Polybutene Unit

0
0

Lubrizol Corporation has installed at the Deer Park, TX plant a field trail version of Emerson’s Continuous Data Analytics capability. Over the last year Qiwei Li, production engineer, and Robert Wojewodka, Technology Manager and Statistician, have developed PCA/PLS models to predict quality parameter and detect faults for the Polybutene and refrigerant compressor units at the Deer Park site. Efren Hernandez, Process Automation Engineer, played a key role in the installation of the field trial station and on-line web based interface for data analytics. At Emerson Exchange 2013, Qiwei Li, Robert Wojewodka, Efren Hernandez and I co-hosted a workshop on: Application of On-line Data Analytics to a Continuous Process Polybutene Unit. In this workshop, we presented the 2013 field trial results for a continuous polybutene process and the lessons learned in model development and deployment of the user interface. This paper won Best-in-Track at Emerson Global Users Exchange 2013. The picture below shows the awards ceremony held on October 3rd, 2013.
