ABB to install electrification and automation systems at new cement plant in India

Technology leader ABB will supply RCCPL with ABB Ability Expert Optimizer, an advanced process control solution for controlling, stabilising and optimising industrial processes, which will allow the cement producer to increase production, minimise its carbon footprint and reduce fuel consumption to meet energy usage goals. Birla Corporation currently produces cement at seven locations in India with a combined capacity of nearly 15.5 mn tonne per year (tpy). The 3.90 mn tpy greenfield plant in Marharashtra incorporates a 40 MW captive power plant and a 10.60 MW heat recovery system. ABB will also provide the new cement plant with electrification infrastructure items such as MV Switchgear and LV Switchgear with ABB UMC100.3 intelligent motor controllers.
