CASTRILLON, ROSAURA DEL PILAR; GONZALEZ, ADRIANA JANETH  e  CIRO QUISPE, ENRIQUE. ENERGY EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENT IN THE CEMENT INDUSTRY BY WET PROCESS THROUGH INTEGRAL ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2013, vol.80, n.177, pp.115-123. ISSN 0012-7353.

The technology of energy management called "Sistema de Gestión Integral de la Energía, SGIE" was proposed in Colombia in 2007 as a result of a research project funded by the government. The SGIE technology consists of statistical and monitoring tools, energy efficiency indicators and conforms to the requirements of the Standard ISO 50001. This paper presents a pilot scheme for the implementation of the SGIE technology in a cement industry with wet process, in order to improve its energy efficiency. The results have shown a reduction of 4.6% of the electric energy consumption in this factory, achieved without investing in new equipment, only with the innovation of the processes through applying technologies of energy management. The implementation of the SGIE has contributed to the adoption of an energy efficient management's culture and continuous improvement of the processes with impact on productivity and competitiveness of the company.

Palavras-chave : Cement production; energy efficiency; energy management; energy performance indicators; SGIE.
