Automation. A main criteria for process optimisation and consistent product quality. The typical nature of synthetic resin manufacturing is batch processing or semi continuous processing. The dynamic behaviour of a batch process is different from and more complex than the continuous process plant operation. The products nature may change from time to time as per market demand. This aspect has made Automation one of the main criteria for process optimisation and consistent product quality.

The typical Automation system handles:

- Graphical process schematics on computer screens for controlling and monitoring by user.
- Two way communication from control room to field (process area).
- A well defined and structured batch recipe for each product, clearly indicating the amount of raw materials and process operating parameters.
- Sequencing of steps for batch production like charging of raw materials, heating of a rector and batch completion sequence.
- Feature of “fail safe mode” in case of control system failure.
- Generation of reports and summary for each batch.
- All related safety features arising due to process or equipment handling.
