IDEAS Digital Twin Technology for Evaporation Plants, Paper360º September/October 2019

In the digitization era, the “Digital Twin” has evolved as an integral part of Industry 4.0. A Digital Twin is a digital replica of the physical assets, processes, and systems, and these replicas can be used for many purposes.

Andritz has more than 25 years of process modeling experience in developing high-fidelity simulation models—Digital Twins of the process plant. These models, with added live plant data as an input, provide comprehensive insight into the current state of processes, helping operations in better decision-making. A Digital Twin for the evaporation plant is one example where the simulation model is connected to real-time plant data to continu-ously solve the process’ instantaneous mass and energy balance. Then, the Digital Twin applies the instantaneous balance data and further calculations to improve operations decisions and plant performance.
