The Synpo company was founded in 1952 as a state-owned Research Institute for synthetic resins and coatings and it has been the leading center of applied research and development in polymers ever since. Synpo was transformed to a Joint Stock Company in 1992. After transformation, the company started with research for profit. Synpo is specialized in:
In 2003, a new control system with the Reliance SCADA was implemented for reliable control of polymerization reactor Hagemann II. Reliance provides control of chemical reactions in the reactor. During the process of polymerization, the following are controlled within the reactor:
An extended Recipe System was created for reliable dosing of many chemicals used in polymerization process. Each recipe consists of two phases: weighing chemicals and boiling chemicals. At first, appropriate chemicals are mixed in the collection tank. Then, the mixture of chemicals goes to the polymerization reactor. The last phase is boiling of chemicals in the reactor. The mixture is boiled according the specific recipe created in the Reliance SCADA/HMI System. The whole process of polymerization is visualized by the Reliance SCADA/HMI System as well.
Reliance provides automatic launching, controls running, suspension and termination of every recipe used in the process of polymerization. At the end, a special data sheet is automatically generated and saved to a database. This feature is provided by an external application. This application obtains data from the database created in Reliance.
