After the trial period, the maintenance manager reported that the Primasonics cleaners were operating well and had allowed them to withdraw an additional 1000 tons of cement that was previously inaccessible. The manager confirmed that choosing the Primasonics technology was a good decision that delivered successful results.

    Case Study

    Cimenterie Nationale Cement Plant


    Fact file Date: Location: Product: Principal: Problem: April 4th 2008 Fond Mombin,Caberet, Haiti - Cimenterie Nationale Primasonics Acoustic Cleaning System Primasonics International Ltd (UK) Build up on the side of his 6000 tonne cement silo

    Client Background Ricardo Corrales, Mec. Eng, Assistant to the Maintenance Manager at the Cimenterie Nationale cement plant in Haiti (jointly owned by Holcim, Colombian Group Argos, local investors and Haitian government) does not have a lot of spare time. However, in August last year whilst reading through World Cement Journal he saw an article about Primasonics Cleaners. Material build up on the side of his 6000 tonne cement silos was continuing to be a serious problem, especially in the adverse local weather conditions ranging from monsoon to extremely dry. THE APPROACH Ricardo visited the Primasonics website and discovered that Primasonics Cleaners had been successfully employed to eliminate material build up on silo walls on a global basis. As requested, Ricardo supplied Primasonics with a dimensional drawing and completed a questionnaire which enabled them to select the most appropriate Primasonics Cleaner solution. THE RESULT At the end of the trial period Ricardo was delighted to report that the Primasonics cleaning system was operating very well and the General Manager of the Technical Department based in Colombia was also equally impressed with the performance of the Primasonics Cleaners during his visit to site. In February this year Primasonics received the following e-mail from Ricardo "Greetings from Haiti - for me it is a pleasure to communicate with you to inform you that because of the Primasonics Cleaners we have been able to withdraw an additional 1000 tonnes of cement which we could not do before we installed your cleaners.
