IIoT and Remote O&M Webinars Every Two Weeks

The Food IIoT and Remote O&M Webinar included over 100 slides on the market as well as the technologies.  The purpose was to show the depth of the research rather than to cover each aspect.  There was a presentation by Jose Molina of ADI which is now a part of Evoqua.  He covered the use of ADI wastewater treatment systems at several ConAgra plants.  ConAgra was used as an example of analysis of each of the food manufacturers.

Alfa Laval was used as an example of IIoW (wisdom) with their initiative to recover byproducts from food wastewater.

The food industry is embracing automation at a very fast rate and has been identified by ABB as one of the most promising industries for its products. You can view this webinar on YouTube at https://youtu.be/q50ewS_ozC8.

On August 23, the subject of the webinar will be IIoT and Remote O&M in the Pulp and Paper Industry.  International Paper, WestRock and Weyerhaeuser will be used as examples of the analysis of all the large producers.  Supplier coverage will include Kemira total chemistry management, Buckman OnSite,  Andritz FiberVision, and various examples of process management, controls, and sub systems.  We invite suppliers to submit additional case histories or relevant data to contribute.

550 Companies buy 80 percent of the Fabric Filter Equipment and Bags

$13 billion will be spent for fabric filter systems, equipment and bags in 2018. 80 percent of the total will be spent by just 550 companies.  The top 50 purchasers will account for more than 40 percent of the total.  The top five cement companies will purchase 20 percent of the fabric filter products purchased by the segment and 9 percent of the purchases by all industries.

The forecasted purchases for each of the 550 companies segmented by region as well as in total are provided in N021 World Fabric Filter and Element Market.  Continuous revisions to the estimates are provided in this on-line system.

Remote monitoring of bag performance and cloud based analytics will allow corporations such as Arcelor Mittal, BASF, Lafarge, and Duke Power to upgrade to the bags, cleaning mechanisms and designs which result in the lowest total cost of ownership.  These end users will be empowered with knowledge which will make them less reliant on sales support. They instead will be looking to discuss technology at a high level.  Furthermore, they will increasingly expect instant answers delivered through digital mobile communications. This change dictates a new approach to sales and promotion which is outlined at Marketing Program for Combust, Flow and Treat
