Management system chosen for chemicals plant
Quinn Chemicals is investing in a new Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) monomer production plant at Leuna, near Leipzig in eastern Germany.
Yokogawa GMSC has issued its 1000th Exaquantum plant information management system (PIMS), which is being used by a Eur 200 million chemical plant being constructed in Germany for Quinn Chemicals.
Yokogawa's Exaquantum plant information management system (PIMS) has is used by process industries throughout the world.
Quinn Chemicals is investing in a new Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) monomer production plant at Leuna, near Leipzig in eastern Germany.
MMA is a basic material used in the production of many plastics.
Production is due to begin in late 2010.
The project is being engineered by the solutions team at Yokogawa Germany and includes the provision of a Yokogawa Centum CS 3000 distributed control system (DCS) and Prosafe RS plant safety system.
ExaPilot, ExaPlog, AAA-Suite and PRM process control and operator assistance packages are also being installed by Yokogawa.
The Exaquantum PIMS family of process products provide the core MES/MIS systems for Yokogawa and includes Exaquantum/Batch, the Exaquantum/SER (sequence of events recorder) and the Exaspot process optimiser.
