True process efficiency goes beyond thermodynamics - Women in Cement Auditđ
Seda BaĆtaĆ , Camila Nicolau Dotta , InĂȘs HilĂĄrio , Catarina Marcelo during an audit 2025 Women in Cement Audit In our industry, we constantly look for ways to optimise heat and mass balance. But we sometimes overlook that the most critical variable for success is the team operating the plant. To reach the maximum potential of a process, we need to tap into the maximum potential of our human resources. Our recent audit at the Secil  OutĂŁo plant was a powerful reminder of t

Making AI work for Cement: The Power of the Hybrid Approach đĄ
Expertise meets AI We have spent decades working alongside plant managers and process engineers. Therefore, we know that cement production is governed by complex physical interactions. That is why we see the greatest potential not in replacing process knowledge, but in enhancing it. The "Grey Model" Approach - AI in Cement To get the most out of digitalisation, we combine two powerful elements: the speed and pattern recognition of AI Â and the reliability of proven process eng
