Simulation model in ProModel to generate proposals for improving the H2O purification process

Abstract

For purification companies, the optimization of H2O purification processes is of utmost importance because it contributes to the good flow and development of internal operations to satisfy the needs of customers who purchase the vital purified liquid. These organizations take into account that production lines must be used at their maximum capacity, which is why it is necessary to detect the main problems that cause bottlenecks, which generate delays and interruptions in the production cycle. Now, in the purifiers located in the region of Nuevo Necaxa, Puebla, the existence of this type of interruptions has been detected, for which a solution methodology was generated that includes the following phases: 1) Field investigation, 2) Establishment of operational times, 3) Representative layout development in ProModel, 4) Simulation model of the water purification production system, these phases evaluated the compliance of the transformation cycle with the programmed times, detecting the bottlenecks that delay the process, with the main objective of weighting and propose a solution that helps improve and optimize the production of the current management system in purifiers, based on statistical results provided by the ProModel software
