Pigment production processes generate significant amounts of dust, which not only affects the health of workers but also causes environmental pollution.

 Therefore, the use of dust removal equipment can effectively reduce dust emissions, protecting both the environment and workers' health. Additionally, dust removal equipment enhances production efficiency and reduces production costs.

Currently, dust removal equipment has achieved automated control; however, issues such as data silos and fault risks persist.

 Establishing a scientific and reasonable IoT monitoring system is necessary to enable remote monitoring and data acquisition from dust removal equipment, as well as to effectively understand and analyze production efficiency, output, and energy consumption data, thereby improving work efficiency and management levels.

The IoT solution for data acquisition from dust removal equipment includes the following components:

1. Device Connection: Connect dust removal equipment to the Wutongbolian industrial smart gateway to enable remote monitoring and control.

2. Data Acquisition: The gateway collects real-time operational data from PLCs and sensors, monitoring parameters such as temperature, humidity, and pressure.

3. Data Transmission: The collected data is transmitted to cloud platforms or upper computers via communication methods such as 5G, 4G, WIFI, or Ethernet.

4. Data Processing: Edge computing is applied to the collected data to promptly detect equipment faults and anomalies.

5. Data Visualization: The analyzed data is presented in graphical formats, facilitating user monitoring, management, and analysis.

Furthermore, for equipment fault maintenance, Wutongbolian offers a PLC remote maintenance solution.

 Engineers can remotely program, debug, and upload/download programs to PLCs located at different sites through the Device Maintenance Express, reducing travel frequency and expenses while enabling rapid equipment maintenance.

Application Scenarios

1. Flue Gas Treatment in Furnaces and Boilers: Flue gas from furnaces and boilers contains significant amounts of particulate matter and harmful gases, necessitating treatment with dust collectors and desulfurization equipment.

2. Handling of Powdery and Granular Materials: Many chemical processes involve the handling of powdery and granular materials, which generate substantial dust during transportation, storage, and processing, requiring treatment with dust collectors.

3. Spraying Processes for Coatings and Paints: Spraying processes for coatings and paints generate significant amounts of mist and particulate matter, necessitating treatment with ventilation and dust removal equipment.
