Solutions and benefits

Process optimisation uses real-time process and economic data to determine setpoints that ensure maximum operating profit while satisfying all regulatory requirements, delivering sustainable plant performance, and increasing return on investment. It moves the process closer to its active constraints reducing the process variability in specific metals and minerals processes such as kiln cooler or mill optimisation.
  • Stabilise and increase product quality, reduce variability
  • Maximise production rate and equipment utilisation
  • Reduce energy, water, and chemical consumption
  • Get real-time visibility of plant and business operations
  • Capture, aggregate, and transform data into manageable, insightful information
  • Obtain faster and more stable grade changes
  • Support operator decision-making
