Cement & lime: lower cost per tonne of cement.
Grinding mills and very large fans dominate electricity; kiln stability decides fuel per tonne of clinker.
Where the money goes
Mill energy per tonne
Live kWh per tonne per mill catches poor loading and worn media the same shift.
Kiln and cooler fans
Huge fans on dampers waste energy at part load. Drives and draught control are often among the quickest paybacks in the plant.
Fuel per tonne of clinker
Excess air and unstable feed raise fuel use. Flue O₂ and feed data keep the kiln steady.
What you get
One number per tonne of cement
Electricity, fuel and losses rolled into cost per unit, live and by section, with hour-by-hour heatmaps that show waste outside working hours.
The right person, at once
Alarms and advice go by SMS, WhatsApp or email to whoever is responsible for that section, and escalate if nobody acknowledges.
PlantOS engineers on every shift
Our intuitive algorithm learns what normal looks like for every signal and flags abnormal events as they happen; our engineers review each section's data and send you advice and a one-page weekly report.
Questions
What does PlantOS measure in cement and lime plants?
Typically: Medium-voltage motor meters, Fan drives, Flue O₂ and CO analysers, Feed weighers, Vibration on mills and fans.
What is the usual first project?
Mill and fan energy per tonne.
How are savings proven?
A baseline of energy against production is fixed before changes are made; savings are the difference between what the baseline predicts for each day's production and what was measured, in line with IPMVP Option B.
