Case Study: a Fortune 500 paper products manufacturer improves boiler uptime with KETOS SHIELD

Fortune 500 Products Manufacturer Leverages KETOS SHIELD To Improve Uptime And Maximize Production Capacity

A Fortune 500 paper products manufacturer faced significant challenges with boiler uptime and production capacity due to water quality issues. Their manual water sampling and testing process was labor-intensive and failed to provide real-time data. To address this, they implemented the KETOS SHIELD and Smart Water Intelligence Platform to automate monitoring at several points in their manufacturing process.

The KETOS solution automatically tested key water quality parameters for process water, mill tank water, and boiler feed water on a daily and shift basis. This provided the team with real-time visibility and automated notifications, enabling them to respond to issues quickly. As a result, KETOS helped the manufacturer achieve a 15% return by increasing boiler uptime and production output while reducing the costs associated with manual testing.
