Summerbell's 2016 Cambridge study of a UK cement kiln found big day-to-day swings in fuel-derived CO2 and modelled a 19.5 percent cut from taming them. That single data point became the starting point for Gigaton's autonomous controllers.
Gigaton applies deep reinforcement learning to control cement kilns and other heavy processes. The UCL-Cambridge spinout closed a $26 million Series A after live runs at Adani, Heidelberg and Holcim.
