▪ Achieve desired material blends

▪ Improve material homogenization

▪ Achieve higher throughput

▪ Reduce operating costs

▪ Increase operating safety

The MBS Stockyard Management is an advanced tool which assists

in the operation of bulk stockyards at mines, plants or ports. This

solution provides stockyard operators with tangible benefits through

stacker/reclaimer automation, increased efficiency and more

transparency. The system provides an accurate three-dimensional

model of the stockyard, which indicates the pile shape and the

material distribution within the stockpile. MBS transforms bulk storage

facilities into precisely controlled tools to efficiently support your

production processes.

▪ Biomass

▪ Iron ore, ferrous pellets

▪ Bauxite and alumina

▪ Fertilizer raws: phosphate, potash or sulphur

▪ Quarry products: granite, gabbro, gypsum or limestone

▪ Industrial by-products: petcoke, FGD gypsum or fly-ash

MBS Stockyard Management provides the following functionalities:

▪ Monitoring of stockpile equipment

▪ Monitoring of stockpile composition

▪ Programming of stacking and reclaiming

▪ Monitoring of stacking and reclaiming

▪ Preparation of balances and analyses

▪ Build-up of stockpiles with specific blends

▪ Historical balances and future planning

▪ Hot spot control

COAL IS NOT SIMPLY COAL

By design, MBS can simulate hypothetical scenarios. This is useful for the

evaluation of alternatives in the operation of the stockyard before execution.

The operator can check available space prior to stacking or preview the

quality of the next reclaimed material flow.

The simulation model in MBS does not require any scanning devices which

are often used by comparable products to build terrain models. This lowers

investment costs and decreases the complexity of the solution. It also means

that the MBS model is more robust and will not be affected by scanner device

failures or measurement errors due to the presence of rain, fog, dust or snow.

The heart of the MBS Stockyard Management is a physical simulation which

has been developed specifically to model the behavior of bulk materials

at a macroscopic scale. The resulting three-dimensional model provides

information on the stockpile shape and distribution of the material. The

information of the distribution of individual delivery batches can be used for

quality management purposes while the terrain contour information serves

as the basis for automation tasks.

MBS builds the model from information of the machine positions and material

throughput. No additional sensors are required. MBS uses data which is

generally available in the digital control system of the stockyard stacking

and reclaiming equipment. The model is updated in real time when material is

stacked or reclaimed. The model can be corrected automatically or manually

for events which are unobserved by the DCS system (e.g. manual wheel

loader operation).

Bulk material simulation and visualization technology

MBS STOCKyARD MANAGEMENT

System architecture and implementation

MBS Stockyard Management is designed to operate alongside any existing stacker/

reclaimer PLC system. The data from the digital control system is exchanged via an

interface, the original system is left unaltered. MBS is ready to connect to a variety

of digital control systems using different communication protocols such as Profibus,

Modbus or TCP/IP (via industrial ethernet).

The system can be implemented during the construction of new stockyards or for

existing facilities. MBS is the ideal solution to retrofit existing stockyards without

installing new hardware.

Every stockyard is unique in dimension, shape, equipment and operating philosophy. MBS

Stockyard Management is flexible and will be customized to meet the local requirements.

The system functionality is modular and can be selected to match the individual needs of

each customer.

Monitoring

MBS Stockyard Management provides real time information for the stockyard operator

on stockpiles and equipment status. By being directly connected to stacker and

reclaimer instrumentation and control equipment, MBS Stockyard Management is able to

visualize actual events in real time. The information typically includes stacker/reclaimer

positions, equipment slewing and luffing angles, material throughput and the material

quality that is currently being stacked or reclaimed.

By simulating material movements in the stockyard, MBS determines the final material

distribution within the stockpile. MBS shows information from the supply chain on

material movements and the individual properties of each material batch. The material

properties can be based on data from prior sampling and lab analysis. Alternatively, the

properties can be measured with online analyzer equipment. By using the best available

data on material batches, the system is able to transform the stockyard from a black box

to a transparent production tool.

Material tracking and analysis

Equipment automation

MBS is able to provide a job queue to the stacker/reclaimer system for a fully automated

mode of operation. Using this system, the stacker and reclaimer can be operated

remotely from a central control room. This reduces the reliance on skilled operators who

operate the equipment manually. The benefits are higher throughput, more constant

performance and lower number of operating errors.

T E x T T E x T T E x T

The MBS stockyard model provides

valuable information on the distribution

of heterogeneous materials within the

pile, which allows the operator to analyze

material location and the blending

efficiency in the stockyard.

On the incoming side, the simulation can

provide a view into the future and model

the placement of an incoming delivery in

order to determine the space requirements

or calculate the effects on the resulting

material blend. On the outgoing side, MBS

can evaluate planned reclaim scenarios

and predict the properties of the resulting

flow of materials before execution.

Scenarios and forecasts

More material handling power for ports

Better product quality management for mines

Clear cost advantages for power plantsOptimize your bulk terminal operation with MBS. Our stockyard management system

will improve the utilization of available space and increase throughput of the material.

You can also combine the MBS Stockyard Management with our MBS Supply Chain

Management database software to manage port operations and material distribution

by truck, barge or railway.

MBS optimizes fuel blends and the fuel supply. You can tap a vast savings potential

and reduce operating costs while being able to avoid material handling problems at

the earliest possible stage. As an example: for a coal fired power plant, unfavorable

ash melting behavior can lead to impurities on heating surfaces in the boiler, reducing

steam generation and, in the worst case, causing a power plant outage. MBS Stockyard

Management prevents these and similar problems.

Quick return on investment

MBS Stockyard Management is an investment that pays off. Usually a return on investment

is expected within the first twelve months.

MBS helps you improve the quality of your product. Whether you would like to homogenize

the material in order to have less variation in quality or when you are blending different

material batches in order to attain a better quality grade altogether: MBS shows you

if your quality management is on track. This enables you to sell your product consistently

in the desired quality.

AN INVESTMENT THAT PAYS OFF

MBS STOCKyARD MANAGEMENT

The MBS software package Carbon Monitoring and Reporting has

been designed as a compliance solution for the European Emission

Trading Scheme. The MBS methodology meets all requirements

set forth in the EU guidelines for the monitoring and reporting of

greenhouse gas emissions under the EU Emission Trading Scheme

(revised Monitoring Guidelines).

MBS Carbon Monitoring and Reporting offers the following benefits:

▪ Easy compliance

▪ Optimized monitoring concept for exact emissions monitoring

▪ Improved transparency by quick comparison of planning data with

actual data

▪ Matching of CO2 emissions to individual batch analyses

▪ Easy integration into portal solutions or trading platforms

CARBON MONITORING

EASY COMPLIANCE AND MONITORING

In order to fully meet the regulatory requirements, the MBS carbon monitoring

is based on recording material flows and the corresponding material quality

grades.

MBS Carbon Monitoring and Reporting builds on material consumption

data generally available in the MBS system. For emissions from fuels, MBS

calculates batch-related emissions levels based on either the calorific value or

the fuel's actual carbon content. The data can be used to compile reports or to

transfer them to other applications via interfaces.

Emission data for any facilities that are not managed in the MBS system

can either be imported via interfaces or entered manually. MBS covers all

information and data as to fuel supply, scheduling and planning, consumption

values of individual generating units as well as long-term planning of fuel

supplies. The MBS CO2 module uses load dispatching data to calculate short-

and long-term CO2 emission forecasts for varying periods of time.

An optional interface to trading platforms allows companies to exchange

information based on actual and planning data. Moreover, the MBS module

can be integrated in web-based portals, thereby automatically generating

emissions reports that are then made available to users on the Intranet

platform. Besides providing reports, the users can retrieve historical reports

and obtain information on legislation, rules and best practices in emissions

trading.
