Abstract
Heavy process industries such as iron and steel plants, cement plants and paper mills have made a considerable investment in Turkey during last decade and a half for capacity improvement and modernization. Process automation systems have held an indispensable part in these investments. The strategic value of automation systems lies in its ability to improve product quality while saving energy and raw material. In this paper the application experience gained over a dozen large and medium size automation projects are summarized and various qualitative and quantitative results are given. Among these results, return on investment (ROI) obtained from few plants occupies prominent place. ROIs found were notably short compared to the economical life cycle to justify the use of automation systems.
