    The document outlines the key stages in the cement production process, including: 1) Quarrying and mining raw materials, preparing fuels, and producing a raw meal. 2) Processing the raw materials through steps like crushing, grinding and homogenization to prepare them. 3) Making clinker by preheating, calcining in a kiln, and requiring significant electrical and thermal energy. 4) Grinding the clinker and additives like gypsum to produce cement, using around 55 kWh/ton of electricity.
