Opportunity
Aluminum smelters use enormous amounts of energy. For that reason, safety and efficiency are prime considerations.
Solution
For one of the leading aluminum smelters in the Middle East, Mott MacDonald carried out a complete study of a high-voltage distribution system.
This included complete reconfiguration of the integrated high-voltage distribution system, rectifiers supplying DC current to the smelter, harmonic measurement, and analysis and design of filters.
Outcome
The result? A safer, more efficient industrial facility.
Over the last few decades, Mott MacDonald has provided similar studies and full implementation services for smelter plants for the steel and LNG industries worldwide.
