The Challenge

A Thailand-based company building biomass plants needed to implement a DCS for the country's first green power plant, transforming woodchip waste into energy. They required a high-reliability, error-free control system with connected device monitoring and automated daily management reporting.

The Solution

Rockwell Automation deployed a DCS and web reporting system using the Process System Estimator design tool, FactoryTalk Historian for critical time-series data collection, and FactoryTalk VantagePoint for centralized alarm reporting and dashboards.

Results

The plant achieved improved reliability with reduced wiring and installation costs. The redundant system ensured consistent, reliable production with precise data reporting. Employees gained easier operations with expanded diagnostics and real-time web-based reporting, delivered on time and within budget.

Key Takeaways

  • Purpose-built DCS design tools like PSE reduce engineering time and cost for greenfield power plant projects
  • Redundant control architectures are essential for biomass energy operations where process interruptions waste raw material
  • Web-based reporting enables management-level decision making without requiring plant floor presence
