Two student teams of VolgSTU reached the finals of the "CASE-IN" championship

Two teams of VolgSTU have reached the finals of the Student League of the CASE-IN International Engineering Championship in the field of Petrochemistry.

International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" − an international competition system for solving engineering cases among students, schoolchildren and young professionals. Its goal is to popularize engineering and technical education and attract the most promising young specialists to the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes, the nuclear industry and related industries.

The Last Battalion teams (Daniil Kusakovsky, Vladislav Arkhipov, Artyom Tyshchenko (HT-343) and ChemTech (Natalia Glukhovskova (SHTM-1.4p), Igor Korsakov (TNGM-1.3p), Irina Makarevich (POAS-1.2), Artyom Myasnyankin (SHTM-1.4p) They became the best in the qualifying stage, having mastered the case from the industrial partner of the championship, SIBUR. The students were asked to formulate how the production process of enterprises will change in the context of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0).

In the semi-finals, together with students from Kazan, Moscow, Voronezh, Blagoveshchensk and Dzerzhinsk, Volgograd polytechnics solved the case "Digital transformation of real production: how technologies increase efficiency in petrochemistry". Newly built enterprises incorporate all the best and most promising solutions that are currently available, but what about enterprises that were modernized 5 or more years ago? How to make them more modern and efficient? It was these questions that young people were looking for answers to using the example of SIBUR-Khimprom JSC.

As a result, both teams - ChemTech and the Last Battalion - earned tickets to the finals.
