Overview
We helped build Pentagro RTO (Real Time Optimization), a solution that optimizes the operation of industrial plants in the sugar and bioenergy sector in real time.
The challenge: find the optimal operating point based on tactical and strategic goals and automatically generate setpoints to adjust the process. The application understands the plant’s dynamic behavior, detects whether it is at steady state and only then triggers a new optimization — while monitoring events such as mill shutdowns and instabilities.
Beyond automation, RTO frees operators to act as strategic analysts, with history, clear dashboards and configurable KPIs.
Intelligence in the project
RTO’s decision logic continuously evaluates the plant’s state and only optimizes under safe conditions. During development, we used AI agents to accelerate modeling, scenario testing and technical documentation.
