Pulp mill production planning and process efficiency
ABB Ability Plant Optimizer for pulp mills is a dynamic on-line optimization solution that aligns process areas and production teams —empowering them with real-time visibility and granular control to drive better productivity and profitability throughout the mill.
Plant Optimizer enables seamless coordination with other systems, such as Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and Advanced Process Control (APC), letting pulp mills operate closer to economic ideal conditions, and build the operational intelligence needed for self-optimizing processes in the future.
ABB’s mill-wide optimization software solution has two powerful modules that can be used separately or together to facilitate collaboration between production managers, process engineers and operators.
Reduce off-spec pulp by improving process consistency and visibility
Mill-wide traceability
Maximize throughput, lower inventories, and reduce production costs while being agile
Economic optimization
Operational resilience
MORE OUTPUT FROM EXISTING ASSETS
5% increase in production
REDUCED OVER/UNDER PRODUCTION
10% reduction in inventories
QUALITY DEVIATIONS CAUGHT EARLY
10% reduction in off-spec production
FASTER RECOVERY FROM DISTURBANCES
2% reduction in production costs
Real-time pulp tracking with synchronized setpoint management eliminates timing errors during grade transitions - preventing chemicals overdosing and off-spec production.
Data-driven approach gives the mill end-to-end intelligence - connecting grade management, recipe control, process tracking, and quality monitoring into a single solution.
