On the cover

In response to the significant need to transform and promote the process industry in China, this issue presents the major existing limitations of current petrochemical enterprises, including limitations in decision-making, production operation, efficiency and security, information integration, and more. To promote a process industry that is based on high-end, smart, and green production, modern information technology should be utilized in the whole optimization process of production, management, and sales. This photograph is taken from the Sinopec Zhenhai Refining & Chemical Company, which is upheld as an example of smart manufacturing by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China.
