Major Bulk Drug manufacturer implements Complete Solvent transfer, Reactors & End of line equipment Automation, Electronic Batch Monitoring & Recording system for tight process control, high availability, consistent product quality & compliance to regulatory requirements

  • Challenge

  • Process being Hazardous the system is to be commissioned error/bug free in first trial “RFT”).

  • Partially automated systems for independent Process control & equipment’s leading to islands of non-integrated system

  • Unable to implement Centralized Recipe based ISA – 88 standard Batch system

  • Transformation of existing Manual Batch records to EBMR

  • Installation, Line Modifications, trials in running plant so tight shut-down schedules

  • Extensive documentation for regulatory compliance (FDS, URS, DQ, IQ, OQ & Performance Qualification)

  • Solution

  • Rockwell DCS offering Plant-wide Integrated Architecture

  • Hazardous (Zone-1) Field mounted remote Intrinsically safe I/O’s

  • Intelligent Architecture with enhanced field side diagnostics

  • ISA 88 compliant Batch & Recipe Management system

  • Enhanced & User friendly recipe system enabling

  • Historian, Data base management software & Web based portals for EBMR & Report generation as per regulatory compliances

  • Asset Management for securing, managing & tracking of assets

  • Validation & documentation services for Regulatory compliance

  • Results

  • Integrated system resulting in integrated view & control of entire plant from Common Control room

  • Consistent Batch quality ensuring high standards of product quality

  • Flexibility & Ability to configure and execute multiple Recipes without any changes required in Control program

  • Elimination of manual Batch records

  • IPR protection of critical information of process / products

  • 100% error free & easy of operations achieved with Tight control & User friendly Operator interface

  • Lower investment on Automation due to Plant-wide Common integrated architecture
