Project Highlights:
  • Created PLC software for interfacing with Bio Gas Generators, Gas Cleaning System and Main Generators PLC.
  • Implemented advanced algorithms for Bio Gas Generators controls based on available Bio Gas in Digesters. The control algorithm sequencing the Bio Gas generators based on available Bio Gas and monitor Main power feed for power peaks and start Bio Gas Generators to prevent power peaks on high demand hours of day. Also implemented is the advanced peak shave logic.
  • Created SCADA screens and SCADA database import files for iFIX 5.5.
