Emerson (EMR) Selected as Automation Partner by Korea's SungEel
Read MoreHide Full Article
Emerson Electric Co. (EMR - Free Report) has been selected by Korea-based lithium-ion battery recycling company SungEel HiTech Co., Ltd. to provide state-of-the-art automation solutions to its Gunsan, Jeollabuk-do located Hydro Center complex’s latest three lithium-ion recycling plants. This deal supports sustainable production and operational efficiency goals of the recycling plants.
Per the deal, Emerson will combine its process automation technology with SungEel’s unique battery recycling methods. The collaboration between the two companies aims to establish a strong resource cycle to enable a steady supply of battery materials for electric vehicles to bolster the world's total production capacity.
Also, EMR’s modern instruments and valve solutions, including a variety of flow, level, pressure, and pH sensors and transmitters, and control valves, will provide the high levels of performance, preciseness and reliability needed for SungEel’s advanced proprietary hydrometallurgical processes.
Lately, Emerson has been awarded a series of contracts, which are likely to drive its growth. In March, the company was selected by the solar energy company Lodestone Energy to provide advanced automation solutions to New Zealand's first large-scale solar photovoltaic power project.
Per the deal, Lodestone leveraged EMR’s Ovation distributed control system and OCR3000 controller to provide comprehensive control to curtail variability and intermittency impact in solar PV power generation. Using this technology, operators were able to quickly respond to grid frequency events. It also helped them in monitoring solar PV operations from the control room or mobile devices, measuring, monitoring and reporting key performance indicators to maximize the visibility of plant operations.
