Waste Water Treatment Plant Automation

In this project, an independent S7-300 PLC was provided for the operations control building, blower building, sludge pumping & chlorination building and solid handling building for collecting process information. We used Wonderware SCADA for operations.

Approach
  • Required more highly skilled operators
  • Manual control of the plant was time and energy-consuming
  • Recording the plant data manually was difficult
  • No diagnostics were available on equipment failure
  • Highly skilled operators were required to control the plant.
  • Process parameter measurement was difficult.
Implementation
  • S7-300 system, Wonderware SCADA
  • Network & Control panel drawings
  • PLC & SCADA Engineering
  • Integration with third-party systems
  • Wonderware 7 operator stations on NAD structure
  • Modbus serial for field instruments
  • FAT
Outcome
  • Entire process visible and controlled from single control room
  • Historic Process Data available for process analysis
  • Historic Alarms/Events available for fault tracking and preventive maintenance
  • Readily available plant production reports with SCADA system
  • System-generated diagnostics which help to identify & address the exact problem
  • Efficient plant control saving crucial time & energy
