Case Study: Major Chemical Manufacturer achieves 15% wastewater chemical cost savings with Plutoshift

Major Chemical Manufacturer Saves 15% in Wastewater Chemical Costs

Major Chemical Manufacturer, a Texas-based chemical producer, struggled to control wastewater treatment costs while staying within NPDES outfall permit limits. Weekly jar tests and plant audits were not giving reliable dosing guidance, and the internal team lacked the expertise to optimize chemical usage. Plutoshift was brought in with its Advantage platform to help address the challenge.

Plutoshift deployed its GROUNDED AI-powered solution to optimize chemical dosing, analyze process correlations, detect anomalies, and monitor sludge settling performance. The result was a 15% reduction in chemical costs, an 11% improvement in effluent quality risk, and a 10% improvement in settling efficiency, helping Major Chemical Manufacturer lower operating costs while improving wastewater performance.
