Vital part of the supply chain
One of COMBITS’s most common applications is to design blending systems. COMBIT has long experience and in-depth knowledge in advanced blending systems.
To realize the greatest profitability in blending operations, a blend optimization system is used to provide management of the component and product tanks, blend header, online and laboratory analytical systems, and planning/ scheduling activities.
An optimized blending system produces blended products with a high degree of precision to meet specifications while minimizing quality giveaway, maximizing the use of the lowest-cost components in the blend, increasing the flexibility of the tank farm operation, and minimizing the frequency of re-blends. A flexible objective function permits component cost, inventory constraints, or product specification to direct the optimizer. It also eliminates the need for bulk storage tanks and speeds up the rate of production, minimizing inventory and reduces capital cost.
In a COMBIT design of a blending system:
we make it for a concrete purpose, still flexible for new blending requirements
we make technical solutions after a complete analysis of metrology, automation and analytical aspects
The basic requirements that a modern blending system should meet are, real-time information about mixing components, quantity and quality and their batching. These tasks could be most effectively solved with a fully automatic system, without any human participation except for designing of blending logics and starting the batches. Products for blending are usually different kinds of gasoline, diesel and distillates.
Benefits with advanced blending systems:
Automatic control (feedback and technologic forecasting)
Synchronous blending of different products, decreasing production time also eliminates storage tank capacity thus reducing capital costs
On-flow quality analysis (fast error detection) gives on-spec product from start to finish with automatic correction
Application of in-stream analyzers (NIR), increasing profitability
