Automated Chemical Mixing Plant

The chemical mixing plant could be automated using supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) technique. The SCADA system contains a central control unit, a remote terminal unit, and a communication medium. The chemical mixing plant operator may use the central control unit to automate the operations of the chemical mixing plant. The field devices of the chemical mixing plant are connected with the remote terminal unit. Ethernet, Profinet, or WAN network could be used to establish the communication medium between the central control unit and the remote terminal unit. The central control unit acts as the server and the remote terminal unit act as the client. The simple server-client communication system is used to exchange the messages between the central control unit and remote terminal unit. The communication medium uses Genesys protocol to exchange the messages between the central control unit and the remote terminal unit.
