IPC智能控制助力炼化企业驶向智能化快车道

Core Insights - The implementation of the IPC intelligent control system at China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) Yunnan Petrochemical has significantly reduced operational fluctuations and labor intensity while also lowering energy consumption [1][2] Group 1: IPC Intelligent Control System - The IPC system integrates upstream and downstream variations into an automated control framework, optimizing the entire production process and alleviating operational pressure [1] - Since the continuous reforming unit was put into operation in November last year, energy consumption has decreased significantly, addressing previous issues caused by raw material property changes [1][2] - The IPC system has been widely adopted across 29 petrochemical enterprises, with 236 production units benefiting from its implementation, accelerating the development of smart factories [1] Group 2: Technical Features and Benefits - The IPC intelligent control system is based on production big data, effectively solving challenges in process control by achieving precise control across all control loops [2] - It addresses technical difficulties such as multivariable, nonlinear, strong coupling, pure lag, and the coexistence of intermittent and continuous control, as well as multi-constraint and multi-objective regulation [2] - The successful application of IPC at CNPC Yunnan Petrochemical serves as a model for other refining enterprises [2]
