Diseño e implementación de banco prototipo de una planta industrial para la formulación de productos químicos líquidos

Abstract

This project focuses on the design and implementation of a prototype bench of an industrial plant that emulates the formulation process of liquid chemical products, which aims to address the specific need in the lack of space and technological tools for the realization of practices in the area of automation and process control at the Antonio Nariño University in Cartagena. The prototype is conceived as a functional sample of a system designed to test, validate concepts, functionalities and technical feasibility before its implementation on a large scale. First, an exhaustive search was made in the laboratories of the Antonio Nariño University related to the problem or need that the present project seeks to solve. After this review, it was determined that the UAN Cartagena campus does not currently have an operational and updated test bench that allows practices in the area of industrial automation. Therefore, this project proposes the design and implementation of a laboratory test bench that emulates an industrial plant for the formulation of liquid chemical products, which will help to overcome the aforementioned problems and will contribute significant improvements in the learning process of the student community and faculty of the headquarters, all supported under the conceive, design, implement, operate (CDIO) methodology.
