The Challenge
High water consumption in cement production requiring cost-effective treatment. Needed to reduce water costs, prevent scaling in cooling systems, and ensure consistent water quality for industrial processes while maintaining production uptime.
Our Solution
Deployed industrial-scale water treatment including softening systems, cooling tower water treatment, and process water purification. Implemented automated chemical dosing and real-time monitoring to optimize treatment efficiency and reduce operational costs.
Technologies Implemented
The Challenge: Scaling and High Water Costs
Tanzania Portland Cement's Wazo Hill plant consumes massive volumes of water for cement production and cooling systems. Scaling in cooling towers was causing frequent maintenance shutdowns, and water treatment costs were eating into profit margins. The plant needed a cost-effective solution that could handle high volumes while preventing scaling and ensuring consistent quality.
Our Solution: Industrial-Scale Treatment
We deployed a comprehensive industrial water treatment system including water softening to prevent scaling, specialized cooling tower treatment, and automated chemical dosing systems. The system handles 30,000 cubic meters daily while maintaining optimal water quality for all industrial processes.
Results: Production Optimization
The new system has eliminated scaling issues completely, reducing maintenance downtime by 50%. Water treatment costs have been reduced by 41%, and the automated systems require minimal operator intervention. The plant can now focus on production optimization rather than water treatment management.
"Kilitek's industrial water solutions have significantly reduced our operational costs while ensuring consistent quality. The automated systems require minimal intervention, allowing us to focus on core production activities."
