Emerson Digitally Automates Expansion of Guixi Copper Smelter in China
Automation engineering took place at Emerson's Pudong Engineering Centre near Shanghai. Emerson technicians worked with smelter personnel to integrate the DeltaV system with Rosemount® instruments, Fisher® valves and FIELDVUE® digital valve controllers, and the AMS Device Manager. Emerson was also responsible for final acceptance testing of all products and systems, control system configuration, training, and other on-site services.
The Guixi Smelter Plant of JCL, constructed originally in 1985, is the first copper refinery in China to adopt the international advanced oxygen enrichment and double convection and double absorption technology. Major components for this technology were imported from Japan and Finland and put into operation in 2003. Planning for the current expansion began in 2007 to keep the smelter at the forefront of copper production in Asia.
