Brief Overview of Cement Making Line The cement clinker manufacturing process consists of raw material grinding, blending, pre-calcining, clinker burning and cement grinding. In short, limestone and other materials containing calcium, silicon, aluminum and iron oxides are crushed and ground into a raw meal.

The heated air from the coolers is returned to the kilns, a process that saves fuel and increases burning efficiency. After the clinker is cooled, cement plants grind it and mix it with small amounts of gypsum and limestone. Cement is so fine that 1 pound of cement contains 150 billion grains.

There are other, non-optimised sampling issues in cement production, first and foremost primary clinker sampling. Often scoop sampling is applied in this stage, a sampling method that critically needs to be reconsidered, because a complete cross-section of the process stream is traditionally considered "almost impossible" to achieve.

Cement clinker is discharged from the kiln into the clinker cooler. The clinker is moved from the cooler inlet to the discharge by the reciprocating motion of perforated grates. In the cooler, air is blown through the bed of hot clinker, cooling it back to near-ambient temperatures.

Process of Clinker Formation in a Cement Rotary Kiln. As a rule, the kiln feed precalcined in the preheater and calciner still contains a certain amount of CaCO3that will be calcined to form CaO in the kiln. When kiln feed undergoes the high temperature zone in the rotary kiln, a series of chemical and mineralogical reactions occur.

The process that cement raw materials is sintered in a kiln is the key to the quality of cement clinker. In the sintering process of cement raw material, the useful components decomposed by various raw materials at 1000 °C are mainly: calcium oxide (CaO), silicon dioxide (SiO 2), aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3), and ferric oxide (Fe 2 O 3).

Clinker is a nodular material produced in the kilning stage during the production of cement and is used as the binder in many cement products. The lumps or nodules of clinker are usually of diameter 3-25 mm and dark grey in color. It is produced by heating limestone and clay to the point of liquefaction at about 1400°C-1500°C in the rotary kiln.

The effect of trace elements is due to the fact that they favorably influence the clinker formation processes (the quantity and property of the "molten phase") on the one hand, and on the other hand that during clinker burning they form solid solutions with silicate minerals (alite, belite) and thereby reduce their hardness. 8 Refs.
