How can we keep our factory running as efficiently as possible? That was the question underlying the implementation of ICT Group's conNXT IoT platform for Blue Phoenix. Why did they chose this solution and what are the results?

Making new raw materials from bottom ash

Blue Phoenix is the world market leader in reprocessing bottom ash from waste incinerators. Normally, this bottom ash is dumped, but Blue Phoenix uses it as a raw material. As much as 90 percent of bottom ash can be transformed into minerals and metals that are used in all kinds of applications, from cars and mobile phones to roads and buildings.

A few percentage of gain everywhere

Blue Phoenix has gained a few percentages on many fronts by using the conNXT platform. "We see malfunctions coming earlier and can often fix them before they have a major impact; We have increased production capacity through more effective use of our machines; We have been able to reduce our energy consumption without impacting capacity or quality. Everywhere we gain a few percentages and when added together, that really makes a difference."
