SABIC Europe B.V has improved the efficiency of acetylene production at it’s Geleen plant by 30 %, thanks to tight control enabled by Emerson Process Management’s PlantWeb digital plant architecture. Costs have been reduced by 300,000 Euros due to predictive diagnostics, improved maintenance practices and lowered operator costs. In addition SABIC has increased throughput, gained better control over its business Key Performance Indicators, and - through a proactive maintenance programme - increased plant availability.
