China aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Focused on improving production and operational efficiencies for its aluminum plant facilities, Chalco collaborated with Shenyang Aluminum & Magnesium Engineering & Research Institute (SAMI) to create a digital twin of its Zhongrun Aluminum Factory. The initiative was set in response to the country's call for green development and reducing energy consumption in China’s aluminum industry. Shenyang Aluminum worked with voluminous data and multiple disciplines spread across 52 subprojects. They used Bentley software to accurately link 300 gigabytes of design and construction data with 3D models, which can then be used for facility management. Working with digital technology allowed for optimized design reviews and inspections during construction. The team also integrated VR technology and digital twins which enabled them to provide training for emergency response and emergency evacuation. SAMI began the project’s 3D design journey in 2017 completing the final implementation of the digital twin plant operation and maintenance application in 2022. The successful demonstration project saved CNY 6 million annually in administrative costs and drove sustainable development. #digitaltwin #3Dmodeling #data #engineering #infrastructure
