据烃加工网站6月23日消息 芬欧汇川集团（UPM-Kymmene）选择西门子能源公司为德国鲁纳正在建设的下一代生物精炼厂提供电气化、自动化和数字化（EAD）服务。
生物炼制厂将是有史以来第一个工业规模的设施，将采用新的工艺创新，可持续地将100%的木材转化为生物基单乙二醇（MEG）、单丙二醇（MPG）以及可再生功能填料（RFF）。一般MEG、MPG以及功能填料都是使用化石原料生产。芬欧汇川将提供替代品，大大减少二氧化碳排放量的终端产品，如聚酯瓶，包装材料，纺织品或橡胶产品用于各种汽车应用。西门子能源公司的项目供应范围包括：
电气化：全厂中低压配电系统及传动系统（电机控制中心、变速传动、电机）；
自动化：用于多个工艺区域和远程I/O机柜（总共9000个工艺对象）的分布式控制系统（DCS），包括爆炸性环境的安全和ATEX功能；
数字化：为整个工厂提供完整的数字孪生系统，涵盖工厂的整个生命周期（从集成工程到集成运营）。

Siemens Energy to electrify first-of-its-kind biorefinery in Germany
The Finnish company UPM-Kymmene selected Siemens Energy to supply electrification, automation, and digitalization (EAD) packages for a next-generation biorefinery currently under construction in Leuna, Germany.
The biorefinery will be the first industrial-scale facility of its type ever built. It will apply novel process innovations to sustainably convert 100% wood into bio-based mono-ethylene glycol (MEG), mono-propylene glycol (MPG) as well as renewable functional fillers (RFF). Both MEG, MPG as well as functional fillers have traditionally been produced using fossil-based raw materials. UPM will provide alternatives to considerably reduce the CO2 footprint of end-products such as PET bottles, packaging materials, textiles, or rubber products used in various automotive applications. Siemens Energy’s scope of supply for the project includes:
Electrification: mill-wide medium- and low-voltage power distribution system and drive system (motor control center, variable speed drives, motors)
Automation: Distributed control system (DCS) for multiple process areas and remote I/O cubicles (total of 9,000 process objects), including safety and ATEX functions for explosive atmospheres
Digitalization: Complete digital twin for the entire plant, covering the mill’s whole life cycle – from integrated engineering to integrated operation.
