Sustainability is emerging as a critical business topic, as companies focus resources toward lowering emissions, waste and energy use in their production process. In this article, Paige Morse, Chemicals Industry Marketing Director, shares how sustainability affects four key areas within a processing plant and how digital transformation supports sustainability efforts through efficiency improvements.

In this final segment of a three-part series exclusive to North American Mining, Marc Poualion, senior industry marketing manager at AspenTech, discusses the digital transformation and adaptions needed by mining's workforce and what's upcoming during this unprecedented time.

Technology has made unpredictable safety events more predictable and therefore more manageable. Now, sustainability is being prioritized alongside safety, and mining companies are turning to technology solutions to minimize their impact on the environment. In this second of a three-part series, read how changing times have had an impact on mine safety and technology for sustainability, and how operators prioritizing all of these are reaping the benefits.

New advancements in mining technology can generate substantial value by driving up revenue, driving down costs and making operations safer and more sustainable. Learn how in this first of a three-part series about the opportunities surrounding digital transformations and mining for the future.

The digital transformation journey can be personalized based on each company’s maintenance maturity, by augmenting or improving on technologies such as condition-based monitoring and product inspections rather than replacing them.

As the Oil & Gas industry attempts to address the threat that carbon release poses to the global climate, the issue of unplanned downtime comes into focus. To avoid greenhouse gas emissions and minimize safety incidents, companies can leverage AI systems such as prescriptive maintenance powered by machine learning to predict impending failures weeks or months in advance—and prescribe actions to avoid or mitigate the issue.

Review the benefits of embracing digital optimization and predictive/prescriptive maintenance in the context of improving mining operations.

Effective machine maintenance is an important factor in achieving operational goals such as improved productivity, safety and availability.

In today’s VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) marketplace, it is important for manufacturers to identify and understand the impact of impeding disruptions and minimize safety, while at the same time meeting their profit objectives. In this Oil Review-Middle East article, AspenTech APM Sr. Director Mike Brooks explains how Autonomous Agents can help a plant identify unexpected events and processes that are out of the norm.

Mining Magazine caught up with Jeannette McGill, Vice President and General Manager, Metals & Mining, Aspen Technology, to discuss the growth of asset performance management in mining and the results of Evolution Mining’s deployment of AspenTech’s prescriptive maintenance solution.
