Engineered and implemented a significant energy-saving initiative by replacing legacy steam-powered pumps with a modern electronic VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) control system. This modernization reduced operational costs and energy consumption in the detergent plant by an estimated 15-20% annually.

Led the critical migration and modernization of the plant's SCADA infrastructure, successfully upgrading the control system from Wonderware 2000/Office 97 to Wonderware 2006/Excel 2005. This improved data reliability and connectivity for operations management and extended the life of the control platform by 5+ years.

Spearheaded the full-cycle commissioning of a new APC production skid plant, implementing a control system based on Allen-Bradley PLCs and a Profibus DP/PA network. This deployment successfully leveraged Wonderware InTouch, InBatch, and on-line historians to achieve a guaranteed production rate of 9.2 tons/hour and 100% adherence to batch quality specifications.

Designed and deployed the InBatch system across four major Softener/APC production makeup areas, successfully standardizing dozens of complex batch recipes and minimizing the risk of human error.

EnfoqueLogro Potente (Diseño Logístico y Reducción de Costos)Optimización de materias primas y reducción de infraestructuraLed a plant-wide optimization initiative for raw material handling, streamlining logistics by consolidating storage into dedicated IBC tanks, vats, and a new centralized perfume area. This design drastically reduced piping infrastructure from 20 lines per production unit to only 2, slashing maintenance costs and minimizing physical footprint.

EnfoqueLogro Potente (Ingeniería de Precisión y Calidad)Diseño de adición de perfumes y prevención de contaminación cruzadaEngineered and implemented a custom, high-precision perfume addition system utilizing a peristaltic pump to manage multiple compatible perfume types. The design included an automated line-return function to minimize chemical residue and eliminate cross-contamination risk between batches.
