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
