• Reduce energy consumption.
 • Increase productivity and yields.
 • Cost-effectively comply with government regulations.
Renewable biofuels such as ethanol and biodiesel offer tremendous opportunities to suppliers and consumers, and are therefore in great demand. The biofuels industry is still very young, however. Among its most pressing challenges are how to produce transportation fuels in ways that are cost-effective, operationally efficient, environmentally sustainable, and beneficial to global and local communities. That's a very tall order for a young industry.
Fortunately, science, industry, and governments worldwide are collaborating to meet these challenges. The industry will clearly evolve as we discover more sustainable feedstocks and develop more efficient processes. Biofuels producers must build their plants with the understanding that flexibility and efficient operations will be key to their success.
One of the best investments that plant operators can make today is to deploy industrial wireless applications, which are far more flexible and less expensive than wired applications. Properly deployed wireless applications can reduce energy consumption (and therefore improve margins), increase productivity and yields, and make it easier and more cost-effective to comply with evolving government regulations and private-sector policies.
Wireless in Biofuels Production Industry
Whether you produce ethanol, biodiesel, or biobutanol, there are many applications for wireless in biofuels manufacturing plants. Common applications include Wireless I/O, Workforce Mobility, and Condition Monitoring. The main benefits of wireless in biofuels production include:
- Faster plant startups and expansions
- Lower infrastructure costs
- Lower energy costs for higher margins
- Shorter maintenance periods and fewer unplanned shutdowns for continuous operation
- Better, faster communication
