How to do a good job in production scheduling? Our plant is a methanol plant with a capacity of 300,000 tons: it has 3 boilers with a capacity of 75 tons each, 28,000 units for air separation, and the gasification furnace uses dry coal powder technology; methanol purification is carried out using the low-temperature methanol washing process. Please, the experienced scheduler, advise on how to manage this! Thank you!
I’m not a scheduler, but based on my own work experience, I’d like to share a few thoughts as a starting point. First of all, it’s necessary to clarify all the chemical production processes and material balances within one’s area of responsibility, in order to make timely adjustments； Next is monitoring the coordinated operation of the production facility area, overseeing the intake and output of raw materials and products as well as their storage, and implementing safety measures to ensure orderly production operations ； Next is coordinating the relevant equipment and production processes; any abnormalities are reported promptly, and measures are taken to ensure production safety and stability ； There is also the requirement to fill out reports and to promptly communicate information on production and operational status, so that relevant managers and process engineers can stay informed about production conditions in a timely manner. There was no discussion regarding the original poster’s production environment, and that approach wasn’t professional enough. Please point out any mistakes; I also want to learn more*:handshake
The eight-character principle: “Organize, coordinate, command, control””
The system must be well understood, and the staff should be as familiar with it as possible. Process parameters, etc., the key points
1. Know the total number of positions in the plant, and memorize the materials, personnel, and key control points for each position.
2. Have a thorough understanding of the process flow and equipment conditions for each position, as well as the utility systems.
3. Achieve an intermediate or advanced level of knowledge in chemical engineering theory.
4. Possess operational skills sufficient to handle any position in the plant at an assistant operator level.
5. Organizational, managerial, and communication skills are extremely important.
6. Be well-versed in safety techniques and skills, as well as the impact of one process on subsequent processes and the influence of one’s own process on other processes.
7. Of course, a holistic perspective is also essential.
8. Outside of working hours, it’s useful to learn more about astronomy, geography, humanities, history, and technological progress.
9. Spend time writing papers, poems, essays, etc., to enhance one’s qualifications and cultivation, and become a charismatic manager filled with positive energy.
10. It would be even better to obtain relevant professional certificates as well.
