PROCESS AREA CONTROL SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Plant-wide process automation from raw material handling to cooling, emissions monitoring and SCADA
Process Coverage
- Raw material handling
- Crushing, screening and grinding
- Slurry preparation and additive dosing
- Pelletizing, drying, preheating and firing
- Cooling, pellet handling and emissions monitoring
System Functions
- Redundant servers and historian
- Operator and engineering stations
- Plant and terminal buses
- PLC/DCS controllers and remote I/O
- Plant-wide SCADA integration
Interlock Philosophy
- Downstream equipment starts before upstream feed
- Downstream trips stop or isolate upstream flow
- Abnormal current, temperature, level, flow or pressure initiates action
- Emergency stops remain independent where required
UTILITY AREA CONTROL SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Integrated automation for water, power, steam, compressed air, HVAC, fire systems, maintenance and laboratory utilities
Utility Coverage
- Raw water intake and treatment
- Process-water recirculation and effluent treatment
- Boiler, steam and compressed-air systems
