Turn your monitor over and look.
At Imperial College’s carbon capture pilot plant, ABB aims to equip today’s students with the skills needed to run tomorrow’s industrial processes. The only facility of its kind in an academic institution in the world, the pilot plant shows students how the latest technologies can help to optimise plant performance and safely manage emergency situations in real-life applications.
Bringing the most advanced control and instrumentation technology into the classroom
The agreement between ABB and Imperial College gives the university access to the most advanced control and instrumentation technology available from any manufacturer, as well as life cycle services and support for the installation.
In return, ABB has access to the carbon capture pilot plant for its own use and will use the facility for customer demonstrations and training, staff learning such as inter-divisional training and hands on experience for its apprentices and graduate engineers.
The increasingly global nature of the projects that ABB are involved with, particularly in the oil, gas and petrochemical sectors, means that engineers from the UK and elsewhere are being called on to work in many different regions worldwide. The aim is to use the plant to create a lasting association between the real-life problems that students will encounter once they qualify and the technology and capabilities available from ABB that can help solve them.
