Integrated Process Control based on Distributed In-Situ Sensors in Raw Materials and Energy Feedstock M. Castano [email protected] and G. Nikolakopoulos [email protected] http://spire2030.eu/disire/ 1/6 Characteristic Example (LKAB) Application of the DISIRE concept in pelletizing process 2/6 Scientific/Technological Goals Reconfigurable and Platform Independent Integrated Process Control The DISIRE IPC strategy will be able to reconfigure the optimal set points for the controlled processes based on online PAT modeling and analysis. This reconfiguration, while retaining optimality in operation, will be developed in an abstractive and generalized way based on specific process analysing methodologies and required measured objectives, in terms of minimization of energy and consumption, level of production, and available control parameters. Application specific novel inline and distributed extended sensory capabilities The basis of the DISIRE project will be the extended in situ measuring capabilities in different process applications. Advanced reasoning and process status cognition The DESIRE reasoning should be based on a combination of off line PAT analysis and online geospatial streams of information based on swarm sensors. Adaptability The proposed IPC should be able to autonomously adapt to the current operation status and desired material or product performance based on advanced online PAT of in situ measurements. Scalability For increasing the impact of the DISIRE project in the processes under investigation as well as into other cross-sectorial applications 3/6 Expected Impact Technological Optimize Industrial Processes by shifting from off-line batches measurements to real time PAT based optimal process control based on the DISIRE enabled in-situ sensors Economic/Social Improve traceability of raw materials. Considering that the annual production is about 25 million tonnes only at LKAB this corresponds to a significant amount and improved tracing and mapping of the transport conditions using embedded sensors, that will enable the generation of multiple new business and opportunities Environmental Create 2% energy savings of electricity and fossil fuels by applying an improved control strategy, which is equivalent to 12,000 tons of carbon dioxide or 15,000 barrels of oil for a large process 4/6 Thank you for your attention Contact: George Nikolakopoulos DISIRE Coordinator Full Professor on Robotics and Automation Luleå University of Technology Email: [email protected] SE-97187 Luleå, SWEDEN URL: www.gnikolak.com http://spire2030.eu/disire/ 5/6
