With the Simmering biomass power station, Austria takes a big step toward achieving the greenhouse gas emission-reduction goals established in the Kyoto treaty. The power station, fueled by wood chips from Österreichische Bundesforste (Austrian Forestries), will reduce the production of carbon dioxide by about 144,000 tons per year. Siemens supplied and installed not only the entire power generation unit but also all the analytics for emission measurement, thus ensuring that Simmering is a role model for avoiding excessive nitrogen oxide and carbon monoxide emissions. more |

The compression of industrial gases can lead to intensive vibrations in the pipes, which can spread to the positioning valves and have a massive influence on their long-term functioning. By combining the Sipart PS2 positioner with a magnetically coupled noncontacting sensor, this problem can be successfully mitigated. more |

In 1996, Siemens AG presented its first PLC-based process control system, Simatic PCS 7, in Rotterdam. In the 10 years that followed, the system underwent continuous technical developments and is now a full-blown DCS. In Version 4, redundant operator stations and interfaces for Profibus PA were introduced, and with Version 5 a multiclient/server architecture and fail-safe, highly available systems. Version 6 was distinguished by higher scalability and performance. As a central part of TIA (Totally Integrated Automation), Simatic PCS 7 is now operating successfully in thousands of implementations around the globe. more |

Modern plant asset management systems play a vital role in increasing plant availability. However, the components that are most frequently responsible for failures often do not provide the information necessary for early detection of problems. This information gap can now be closed with an intelligent evaluation of existing process information. more |
