Part 2: Analyzing the industry’s digital present and future in greater detail

This second of a two part ABB white paper delves deeper into today’s digital opportunities within the chemical industry with reference to even more case studies and independent sources than presented in its predecessor. It reviews the digital priorities of today’s downstream operators and explores the quantifiable benefits achievable along with sharing four imperatives critical for success.

The ABB white paper discusses how technological advances are enabling chemical manufacturers to bring together the data they have hidden in disparate systems to deliver greater business value than previously possible to address a wide range of issues. For example, it considers the impact of digitalization on integrated batch process optimization, supply chain management, predictive maintenance and project execution. The importance of digital twins, modular automation and open system architectures are also explored.
