About 13 years ago at Bayer’s Channelview facility, Wray and his colleagues developed a form of procedure automation to make two polyols, a triol based on glycerin and a diol based on propylene glycol. A breakthrough in catalyst technology had permitted them to convert a batch reactor to produce the two polyols in a continuous mode. Because the two products are in different families, they are incompatible enough that operations must deinventory the system and restart to switch from one product to the other twice a month.

Engineers wrote procedural scripts for such transitional phases of the reactor as cold starts, restarts after a trip, shutdowns, de-inventory procedures, and rate changes. “We even have one that runs an optimizer [on the multi-constraint controller to optimize feed rates] on the reactor,” says Wray. “At the time, though, nobody was calling it procedural automation, but that’s what it turned out to be
