The Challenge
Heavy reliance on manual labor
Chemical waste plants require a fair bit of manual labor to keep things running smoothly. However, as ECO gears up for expansion and anticipates a sizable increase in processing volumes, they’re looking to minimize manual tasks like equipment monitoring with the help of digital tools. By digitalizing these processes, ECO can expect to reduce human error and improve overall efficiency.
Safety and compliance concerns
ECO prioritizes ensuring equipment safety. Malfunctioning equipment can lead to leaks, fires, or explosions, jeopardizing the company’s operations, safety record, and public image. Because many chemicals used or produced in waste treatment are flammable or explosive, proper handling procedures and well-established equipment monitoring systems are essential to prevent these incidents.
Data collection & visualization tools for better decision-making
Data visualization plays a crucial role in identifying areas for resource optimization and cost savings within a chemical waste plant. To achieve this, ECO wants to ensure a robust data foundation. This means collecting and validating data meticulously to create a reliable database. With this reliable data, the management team can then leverage data visualization tools to generate insights that inform better decision-making.
The Solution
Enhancing Workplace Safety and Compliance with AI-powered IoT Monitoring
Yonyou implemented a real-time AIoT system that retrieves plant performance data. This system goes beyond monitoring by determining start-up and operation times, and triggering alarms for any abnormal equipment performance. This enables predictive analysis and intelligent monitoring, ultimately reducing human error and enhancing workplace safety.
Mobile and user-friendly interface for plant workers
Real-time data from the AIoT system feeds into Yonyou’s Office Automation platform, which automatically generates reports for chemical plant workers. Workers can then verify, validate, and add comments directly within the reports, flagging any potential issues that require investigation. Yonyou’s mobile-friendly interface makes this process convenient, allowing workers to interact and input data on the go.
Integration of Office Automation & AIoT tools with pre-existing ERP & SCADA system
Yonyou’s integrated Office Automation and AIoT platform seamlessly connects with ECO’s existing Microsoft Dynamics NAV and SCADA system, creating a fully automated process. Real-time data flows across all platforms, ensuring consistency. On-the-ground staff interact with the user-friendly Office Automation interface, while the AIoT-SCADA platform handles backend equipment integration. ECO’s management gains real-time data visualization of plant performance through Yonyou’s tool, empowering them to make data-driven decisions.
