Case Study: multinational steel company achieves 13% lower water treatment costs and improved uptime with KETOS SHIELD

Improved Operational Uptime and 13% Reduction in Water Treatment Costs with KETOS SHIELD

A multinational steel company was facing challenges with water quality monitoring across its cooling systems. Using traditional manual testing methods led to delayed results and inconsistencies, creating operational blind spots that risked corrosion and scaling. This impacted uptime and often led to over-treatment of water. To address this, they implemented the KETOS SHIELD from vendor KETOS.

The KETOS solution provided real-time, lab-accurate water quality data and alerts, enabling operators to proactively manage scaling risks by adjusting chemical treatments. This resulted in a significant improvement in operational uptime and a 13% reduction in water treatment costs for the customer. The KETOS platform automated monitoring for key parameters critical to preventing corrosion.
