Plant Intelligent Automation and Digital Transformation: Process and Factory Automation is an expansive four volume collection reviewing every major aspect of the intelligent automation and digital transformation of power, process and manufacturing plants, from the specific control and automation systems pertinent to various power process plants through manufacturing and factory automation systems. This volume introduces the foundations of automation control theory, networking practices and communication for power, process and manufacturing plants considered as integrated digital systems. In addition, it discusses Distributed control System (DCS) for Closed loop controls system (CLCS) and PLC based systems for Open loop control systems (OLCS) and factory automation.

This book provides in-depth guidance on functional and design details pertinent to each of the control types referenced above, along with the installation and commissioning of control systems.

  • Introduces the foundations of control systems, networking and industrial data communications for power, process and manufacturing plant automation
  • Reviews core functions, design details and optimized configurations of plant digital control systems
  • Addresses advanced process control for digital control systems (inclusive of software implementations)
  • Provides guidance for installation commissioning of control systems in working plants
