OUR SOLUTIONS
EmpiricAI’s solutions are data-based tools and algorithmic models that Industrial plant professionals can use to address specific challenges and provide recommendations to make specific processes more efficient and provide an immediate ROI.
Operational Advisors
Cooling Tower System Advisor is an advisory tool that utilizes a physics based thermodynamic model, at its core, to identify operational recommendations that maximize plant output and efficiency. An AI/ML based engine compares the recommended settings to historical settings to assist in quantification of the improvement magnitude.
Running the cooling tower on recommended set points helps user achieve:
➜ Reduced supply water temperature
➜ Improved condenser performance
➜ Better energy efficiencies
➜ Improvement in plant’s output.

A ML/AI anomaly detection tool that detects, alerts, and advises operators about auxiliary power consumptions at the plant, system, and asset level. Operators have an intuitive view of each consumer whereby bad actors are easily detected and alerted. The ALM advisor contributes to:
➜ Maximum availability for dispatch
➜ Reduced cost of generation
➜ Reduced time for trouble shooting problematic equipment.

The Reverse Osmosis (RO) chemical dosing advisor uses an ML/AI engine to provide plant operators and engineers with analysis and real time advice on how to achieve a lower overall cost of production via optimization of chemical dosing rates without any loss in production rate, water quality, or plant reliability and availability. Users can view a summary or detailed view of each dosing chemical, it’s variation from optimal and the associated cost impact. The cost optimization financials take into consideration chemical usage, inlet treatment filtration, as well as membrane cleanings and replacement.

Process Setpoint Advisor uses a combination of physics-based models and ML/AI based models to recommend process settings to optimize critical plant KPI’s such as production output and energy efficiency. Real-time operating data from the DCS are channeled to the models where models compare current settings to optimal set points and then offer a recommendation to the plant operator and engineers.
The Concentrated Solar Plant (CSP) Energy Storage Advisor sits on top of a combined physics and ML/AI model engine to recommend the optimal generation versus energy storage mix for each day or partial day. The advisor engine takes into condition the forecasted sun energy, process physics, and the economics of energy sales process and how they can vary throughout the day.
➜ Daytime generation vs storage for nighttime
➜ Energy sales rates
➜ Turbine and storage capacities

Maintenance Advisors
GT Compressor Wash uses a combination of turbine thermodynamics and plant economic operating factors to compare the currently planned next wash date to the most economically optimal date.
Boiler Gas Air Heater applies to steam turbine thermal power plants and uses a combination of turbine thermodynamics and plant economic operating factors to compare the currently planned next wash date to the most economically optimal date.
Heat Exchanger Fouling the advisor combines heat exchanger first principles with plant impact derivatives, as well and cost factors of those impacts. The result is a recommended date to take the exchanger out of service for a cleaning that to heat transfer physics.
Auxiliary Load Management an anomaly detection tool that detects, alerts, and advises operators about auxiliary power consumptions at the plant, system, and asset level.
It helps in optimizing the auxiliary consumption and improves the net efficiency of the complex.
