IOT in cement industry
The cement industry is rapidly adopting modern technological applications such as AI and IOT in order to provide smart solutions to the challenges. Cement factories need to manufacture an ample quantity of cement for industrial purpose. IOT in cement industry is used for:
- Data analytics.
- Suitable manufacturing process of cement.
- Smart cement plant.
- Reduction of carbon emissions.
Cement industry can implement IOT services and solutions for creating a smooth manufacturing process. Leading cement manufacturing companies in India have implemented IOT services for an efficient supply chain management. Water is a major element used in cement industries and therefore these companies are also using IOT for water conservation. A sound ML platform for automating logistics operations has been adopted by several cement manufacturers.
Application of IOT in Cement Industry
Application of IOT in cement industry leads to the development of smart plant. A smart plant is a cement manufacturing plant that is based on modern technology, IOT and automation of producing cement to maximize production. Major Indian cement manufacturers are planning to adopt Industry 4.0 within the program of creating smart plants called “Plants of Tomorrow”. The program will implement AI, automation and robotics to increase cement production.
Implementation of AI and IOT
Implementation of AI and IOT can reduce the carbon emission from the atmosphere. According to Chatham House, manufacturing of cement results in 8% of carbon dioxide emissions (approx). International cement manufacturing groups have significantly reduced carbon footprint by using AI. Carbon footprint reduction can be achieved by increasing operational efficiency and lowering the consumption of unit energy.
