Integrate automation for petrochemical operations

Honeywell UOP's aromatics and olefins technologies provide yields and energy efficiency through established process designs and continuous innovation. Our CCR Platforming technology produces high-octane aromatics including benzene, toluene and mixed xylenes with high selectivity and lower operating costs compared to traditional semi-regenerative reforming. The continuous catalyst regeneration approach maintains consistent catalyst activity and product quality while reducing the production losses associated with periodic regeneration shutdowns. 

Oleflex propane dehydrogenation technology converts propane to propylene, providing reliable propylene production to support growing polymer demand. Integration with Honeywell's digital optimization platforms including Experion PKS and Advanced Process Control applications enables performance monitoring and optimization that can help increase yields and reduce energy consumption.

Honeywell UOP's comprehensive lifecycle services are aimed at supporting plant reliability through expert support spanning startups, turnarounds, and ongoing operations. Our service engineers have assisted in process unit startups worldwide, providing commissioning support, performance testing, and operational optimization during critical initial operations. Turnaround services including Elite and Showcase packages combine detailed inspection protocols, maintenance coordination and rapid execution methodologies designed to help minimize downtime during planned outages. 

The Everystep service platform provides customizable end-to-end support integrating planning, execution and post-turnaround analysis. Performance managers work continuously with operations teams to identify optimization opportunities including catalyst performance improvements, process parameter adjustments and operational efficiency enhancements. 

Honeywell's digital solutions portfolio can help petrochemical operators achieve emissions reduction objectives and enhance energy efficiency through advanced monitoring, optimization and control technologies. 

• Our digital twin platforms model process operations to test optimization scenarios without disrupting production.
•  Advanced Process Control applications help optimize energy consumption across distillation, reaction and separation processes. 
• Emissions monitoring integration designed to provide live tracking of greenhouse gas releases, fugitive emissions and carbon intensity metrics supporting voluntary disclosure frameworks and regulatory reporting requirements.  
• The NEP technology is designed to offer emissions reduction potential for olefins production. 
•  Connected Plant capabilities enable remote monitoring, predictive maintenance and operational intelligence that supports better decision-making.
