Liu Maoshu said that in the cooperation, a highlight of the digital intelligence technology provided by Honeywell is the deep integration of its UOP refining process technology and expert insights, through the “two-pronged” means of hardware and software, to achieve 1+1>2 results. With UOP process experts, Honeywell enables optimization guidance and card edge control to help customers ensure that reforming, aromatics and other plants continue to optimize efficiency and reinforce intrinsic safety for operational excellence. In the future, relying on the unique technique of “dual technology integration” of UOP process and smart factory, Honeywell will also help more process industry enterprises achieve sustainable and high-quality development goals.

Building on previous successful cooperation, Honeywell and Shenghong Petrochemical signed a strategic memorandum of understanding to further explore digital intelligence empowerment in the petrochemical industry, aiming to expand cooperation in the field of digitalization and automation, and promote the safe, reliable, efficient and sustainable development of the petrochemical industry with advanced technology and operational excellence.

For the cooperation between the two sides, Bai Wei believes that the practice case has many advantages, greatly improving efficiency and optimizing production. In this case, the original operator’s daily operation habits of flow, temperature and pressure, after applying Honeywell’s automated and intelligent technology, greatly reduced the labor intensity of personnel, and increased the automatic control rate of the device to more than 95%. In addition, the focus of management has shifted from outcome to process, that is, to detect problems in advance and prevent them through technical diagnosis. Honeywell’s UOP Life Cycle service provides weekly plant status and trend forecasts to help Srbong PDH projects achieve long life cycles, optimize material consumption, and reduce overall production costs while increasing production.

By sharing this case, the two sides hope to share the results of the exploration process and practice with their peers in the petrochemical industry, that is, how to achieve an integrated management system from the deployment of the plant to the operation of the plant from point to point. New challenges, new technological advances, and new conceptual changes make the topic of building a smart factory in the petrochemical industry more complex and rich. The white paper will take the practice of Sierbang propane dehydrogenation smart factory as an example, from small to large, to provide new ideas for the digital transformation of the petrochemical industry.
