In 2010 Harcros Chemicals documented outcomes from its migration to the Emerson DeltaV Automation System as an Asset Performance Management initiative focused on the Kansas City ethoxylation batch plant. The deployment targeted the specialty chemical batch process in two reactors and established a central control, safety and asset management layer to support production and maintenance business functions.
The Emerson DeltaV Automation System implementation included a redundant controller architecture and approximately 325 I O points, with application and engineering stations colocated in a technical center control room and a plant workstation for local operation if the fiber optic link to the remote station failed. Recipe and batch configuration could be changed on the fly without process shutdown, and Emerson AMS Suite was used for asset management and maintenance workflows, providing trend analysis and structured condition monitoring for operators and maintenance staff.
Project delivery combined external engineering validation and local integrator execution, Burns & McDonnell reviewed supplier bids and Experitec performed the DeltaV installation between April and October 2007, with commissioning aided by AMS Suite data. The control architecture was later extended by adding a DeltaV SIS controller to meet SIL 2 objectives, using an integrated yet separate safety architecture with a common database and operator interface, and DeltaV wireless monitoring was integrated to broaden instrumentation coverage.
Rollout planning emphasized short outage windows, the cutover was scheduled around an inventory shutdown and startup occurred ahead of expectations, minimizing production interruption. Operational process changes included centralized trending and batch duration monitoring, faster on demand recipe adjustments, and internalization of maintenance activities that previously required outside contractors.
Explicit results reported by Harcros Chemicals include a 12 percent to 15 percent increase in throughput on a pounds basis, reduced off spec product and rework, trip check time reduced from six days to two hours, elimination of planned downtime for trip checks, and reduced maintenance cost. The company reported enhanced reliability and safety, a single board failure between 2007 and 2010 that automatically failed over to the redundant controller with no downtime related to the DeltaV system, and subsequent reuse of DeltaV designs for a Dalton Georgia plant and a new plant under construction in China.
