Case Study: FCC Environment gains clearer turbine visibility and proactive maintenance with Valmet DNA automation

FCC Environment boosts turbine visibility with Valmet in a 3-week shutdown

FCC Environment, an operator of an Energy from Waste facility in the UK, faced a challenge with a "black box" turbine automation system that provided no visibility for its operations and maintenance teams. This lack of insight hindered informed decision-making and proactive maintenance, leaving the plant exposed to potential failure. The company turned to vendor Valmet to address this issue.

Valmet implemented a solution by replacing the original system and fully integrating the turbine automation into the site's existing Valmet DNA Automation system. This provided the teams with significantly improved visibility into the turbine process and enabled more proactive maintenance. The project was completed ahead of schedule during a tight shutdown window, saving time and resources. The integration also streamlined training and support, eliminating the need for two separate systems and service contracts.
