Emerson to automate Lucite chemical plant in Singapore 

艾默生为Lucite在新加坡的化工厂提供自动化系统

AUSTIN, TX , July 24, 2007 -- Emerson Process Management has been selected as the main instrumentation vendor for Lucite's methyl methacrylate (MMA) plant in Singapore, which is currently under construction and is scheduled to begin operation in 2008. MMA is a chemical used in consumer products including plastics, paints and adhesives.

奥斯汀7月24日消息——艾默生过程管理被Lucite公司选为其正在建设中的、预计在2008年投入使用的新加坡甲基丙烯酸甲酯（MMA）工厂的主仪器供应商。MMA是应用于包括塑料制品、油漆以及粘合剂等消费品的一种化学原料。

"The Singapore MMA plant is crucial to Lucite's business strategy because it is the first plant to utilize our patented Alpha technology, which will liberate the MMA industry from its historical dependence on the pressured raw materials acetone, HCN and isobutylene," said John Noon, Lucite project engineer. "Alpha uses ethylene, methanol and carbon monoxide, which are all readily available and will not limit Alpha's unique scale potential."

Lucite公司项目经理John Noon表示：“新加坡 MMA工厂对Lucite的业务战略很关键，因为它是第一个使用我们专利的Alpha技术的工厂，Alpha技术将使MMA工业从过去依赖丙酮、HCN和异丙烯等压力原材料的历史中解放出来。Alpha利用乙烯、甲醇和一氧化碳，这些都很容易得到而且不会限制Alpha的独特升级潜力。”

Emerson will provide design verification, testing and commissioning, and will supply PlantWeb digital plant architecture asset management programs.

艾默生将负责设计论证、测试和试运行工作，而且将提供PlantWeb数字工厂架构资产管理程序。

"The Singapore plant will be the first in a series of state-of-the-art, Alpha-based production facilities Lucite is building around the world," Noon added. "So it is critical that the quality of the instrumentation, equipment and services be best in class and easily scalable to higher capacity plants. We selected Emerson as our main instrumentation vendor because of its excellent performance as digital automation vendor at our MMA plant near Shanghai. Emerson's strong presence in Singapore and its strong global engineering capabilities also played a role in our decision."

Noon补充道：“新加坡工厂将成为首家Lucite正在全球建造的一系列顶级的、使用Alpha技术的生产工厂，所以保证其仪器、设备和服务都是顶级的以及容易地升级到更高的工厂容量是至关重要的。艾默生在我们上海邻近的MMA工厂作为一家数字自动化供应商的优秀表现是我们选择其作为我们的主仪器供应商的原因。艾默生在新加坡很广的布局及其强大的全球工程能力在我们的决定中也起着重要的作用。”

"We are very pleased to be selected as the main instrumentation vendor for Lucite's ground-breaking Alpha plant in Singapore," said John Berra, president of Emerson Process Management. "Emerson engineers from the United Kingdom, India, and Singapore collaborated to provide a simple and modular design that can easily be scaled up for future plants without requiring major re-design and sizing work."

艾默生过程管理总裁John Berra表示：“被Lucite奠基式的Alpha新加坡工厂选为主仪器供应商，我们非常高兴。来自英国、印度以及新加坡的艾默生工程师们通力合作，提供了一个简单而模块化的设计，可以轻易地为将来的工厂进行升级，无需进行主要的重新设计和调整工作。”

Emerson's PlantWeb digital plant architecture substantially reduces project costs, with customers typically reducing their installation costs by 30 percent. The architecture's built-in predictive intelligence can improve plant efficiencies by 2 percent or more, which is key to helping customers derive full value from state-of-the-art control, automation and asset management solutions, whether at the installation or operational phase of the project.

艾默生的PlantWeb数字工厂架构极大地减低了工程成本，为客户减少了30%的安装成本。该架构内建的预测情报功能至少可以改善2%以上的工厂效率，这对帮助客户无论是在项目的安装还是运作阶段，充分获得顶级的控制、自动化和资产管理解决方案的价值是关键的一点。

The PlantWeb architecture at the Singapore plant will include Emerson's safety instrumented systems, a plant information management system and a laboratory information management system.

用于新加坡工厂的PlantWeb架构将包括艾默生的安全仪器系统，一个工厂信息管理系统和实验室信息管理系统。
