This project aims at improving plant efficiency and safety to a world's best level for the Ethylene Oxide (EO) plant of Huntsman Corporation Australia (HCA). EO is a key chemical intermediate for making polyesters (clothing, PET bottles, insulation) and surfactants. To remain globally competitive, it is essential to improve the efficiency of the plant, which has a small capacity and supports important Australian markets. The goals will be achieved by developing advanced operational and control strategies (through computer modeling, process optimisation and intelligent systems approach), which will assist in better understanding the process and in providing optimal HCA plant operation.

该项目旨在将亨斯迈澳大利亚公司（HCA）环氧乙烷（EO）工厂的工厂效率和安全性提高到世界最高水平。环氧乙烷是制造聚酯（服装、PET瓶、绝缘材料）和表面活性剂的关键化学中间体。为了保持全球竞争力，提高该工厂的效率至关重要，该工厂的产能很小，并支持重要的澳大利亚市场。这些目标将通过开发先进的操作和控制策略（通过计算机建模、过程优化和智能系统方法）来实现，这将有助于更好地理解过程，并提供最佳的HCA工厂操作。
