Interactive plant

A plant that thinks in flows

Gas, steam, compressed air, material and information all move through a plant. Pick a building to see one everyday task from signal to decision.

Gas holder and stoves

Balance by-product gas across processes

Stoves change over — When hot-blast stoves switch, blast-furnace gas demand jumps and the holder level swings.
Forecast the swing — Models on Core forecast the holder level and the surplus that would otherwise be flared.
Dispatcher confirms — A staggered stove schedule goes to the dispatcher, who confirms it. The result is tracked against the forecast.

Boiler house

Efficiency drifts — Calculated efficiency falls below the baseline for the current load.
Separate the causes — The calculation separates fuel quality from operating settings such as excess air.
Shift lead reviews — An adjustment with its evidence goes to the shift lead. Nothing changes until it is approved.

Compressed-air station

Pressure set too high — Header pressure sits well above what the production lines actually need.
Check leaks and control — Flow at night and compressor staging reveal leakage and control losses.
Apply after confirmation — A new set-point and staging plan are applied after the station owner confirms them.

Dust-collector fan

Signals leave the band — Vibration and filter differential pressure leave their normal band for this operating state.
Match and flag — A known fault pattern matches; the part that does not fit is flagged for an expert.
Maintenance prepared — Records, checks and parts are prepared before the crew goes out, and the outcome is logged.

Quality lab and line

A coil fails inspection — An inspection result falls outside the specification.
Trace upstream — Process conditions and raw-material batches linked on Core are followed back step by step.
Expert confirms — A quality expert confirms the cause; other batches with the same history are checked.
