ALUMINIUMWALzINDUSTRIe Energy Advisor von SMS Siemag energieströme transparent machen und energieverbrauch senken J. Mellenthin, SMS Siemag Die Produktion von Hüttenaluminium ist bekanntermaßen sehr energieintensiv. Auch für die anschließende Verarbeitung von Aluminium zu Halbzeugen durch Walzen und Wärmebehandlung stellt der Energieeinsatz einen entsprechend gro ßen Kostenblock dar. Dies gilt nicht nur für die Produktion in Deutschland mit seinen hohen Energiepreisen. Auch in Regionen, in denen Energie vergleichsweise günstig ist, kommt der Reduzierung des Energieeinsatzes aus Kosten- und Umweltgründen zunehmende Bedeutung zu. Mit dem „Energy Advisor“ hat SMS Siemag ein Energiedaten-Managementtool entwickelt, mit dem sich Energieströme im Produktionsprozess verfolgen und optimieren und damit Energiekosten senken lassen. Preiserhöhungen aufgrund standortspezifischer Sonderlasten sind in einer Branche, die in einem intensiven globalen Wettbewerb steht, kaum durchzusetzen. Umso wichtiger ist es, alle Potenziale zu aktivieren, um international wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben. Ein Energiedaten-Managementsystem wie der Ener gy Advisor von SMS Siemag kann dabei wichtige Impulse geben, indem er Energieströme ganzheitlich betrachtet und beurteilt. Ein Energiemanagementsystem nach ISO 50001 ermöglicht Transparenz über Energieflüsse bzw. den Energieverbrauch im gesam - ten Produktionsprozess. Dadurch ergeben sich aussagekräftige Daten, deren Auswertung hilft, Energiekosten und CO 2 -Emissionen zu reduzieren. Erfahrungswerte zeigen: Mithilfe eines Energiemonitoringsystems lassen sich zweistellige Kosteneinsparungen erreichen. Die Amortisierungszeit dieser Systeme liegt häufig unter zwei Jahren. SMS Siemag bietet mit seinem Energy Advisor im Bereich der Hütten- und Walzwerkstechnik ein entsprechendes Energiedaten- Managementtool, das über das reine Monitoring hinausgeht. Idealerweise findet es schon beim Engineering neuer, energieeffizienter Anlagen Berücksichtigung. Übergreifende Kenntnisse der Elektrik und Automation sowie der Prozesstechnologie ermöglichen eine kostengünstige Integration, da schon beim Bau der eigentlichen Anlage auf die ohnehin zu installierenden Sensoren und Aktoren zurückgegriffen werden kann. Schnittstellen können so deutlich minimiert werden. Doch The SMS Siemag Energy Advisor Making energy flows transparent, cutting consumption J. Mellenthin, SMS Siemag It is well known that aluminium production is very energy-intensive. Subsequent processing into semi-finished products by rolling and thermal treatment also takes a lot of energy that is a correspondingly high cost factor. This applies not only to production in Germany with its high energy prices. There are similar considerations even in regions with relatively cheap energy, where reducing consumption is becoming ever more important for reasons of economy and environment protection. That is where the Energy Advisor, a data management tool developed by SMS Siemag, comes in handy because it tracks and optimises energy flows in the production process to help save costs. Trying to raise prices due to specific local burdens hardly seems a viable plan in an industry that operates under intensive global competition. Therefore it is all the more vital to utilise every potential available for staying internationally competitive. A management system like the Energy Advisor from SMS Siemag can help by providing vital pointers from the observation and analysis of total energy flows. Such an energy management system – fully compliant with ISO 50001 – makes energy flows and consumption transparent throughout the production process. Further, it delivers the data producers need to analyse energy outgoings and reduce CO 2 emissions. Experience has shown that cost savings in double figures can be achieved with an energy monitoring system. That’s why these solutions often pay for themselves after less than two years. What SMS Siemag offers with its Energy Advisor for the metallurgical plant and rolling technology segment is a tool that goes beyond mere monitoring. Ideally, it even impacts on the engineering process by identifying new, energy-efficient plants at this early stage. Also available is interdisciplinary expertise covering electrics and automation as well as process technology for low-cost integration. That is because the sensors and actors to be installed in the plant anyway can be included in the more efficient design right from the start. This significantly minimises the number of interfaces. Yet the Energy Advisor can also be retrospectively integrated into existing plants, whether built by SMS Siemag or other suppliers. A host of benefits for the aluminium industry Compared to the high energy input required for primary aluminium production, the power used by aluminium rolling mills incorporat - ing hot and cold rolling mills, heating and thermal treatment furnaces, as well as strip processing lines appears fairly moderate.
