Kuldeep Chouhan

Results-driven Process Engineer with hands-on responsibility for a 9,500 TPD kiln and full pyro section at one of India's largest integrated cement plants. Promoted to Assistant Manager within 6 months — a recognition of exceptional operational judgment and independent decision-making on a live, high-capacity kiln. Combines a strong B.Tech Chemical Engineering foundation with proven expertise in heat & mass balance modelling, VRM analysis, clinker quality control, and systematic process troubleshooting.

Ready to deliver measurable efficiency gains and quality improvements in international cement and heavy industrial environments.

Assistant Manager – Process (Pyro) at Adani Cement Ltd. (2025-01 – Present)

9,500 TPD Integrated Plant

• Operated 9,500 TPD kiln across shifts — maintaining production schedules and diagnosing deviations before escalation to unplanned stoppages.
• Controlled LSF, SM, AM, and free lime in real time with QC team; drove measurable reduction in out-of-spec clinker production.
• Applied heat & mass balance analysis to optimise fuel combustion and heat transfer, targeting sustained reduction in specific heat consumption (kcal/kg clinker).
• Tracked shell temperature profiles and refractory lining wear; initiated early-warning maintenance interventions to protect campaign life.
• Diagnosed and resolved ring formation, coating build-up, and draft imbalance using shift-level data analysis and direct operational action.

Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET) at Adani Cement Ltd. (2024-07 – 2024-12)

• Completed structured rotations across raw mill, VRM, and pyro sections — exposure that led directly to independent kiln assignment.
• Conducted Blaine and residue analysis on raw meal and cement samples to verify adherence to quality control targets.
• Executed refractory calculations and contributed to shutdown sequencing, ensuring lining replacement within planned outage windows.
• Mined shift-level logs to pinpoint recurring inefficiencies; findings fed directly into corrective action plans.
