Stages of Cement Plant Process

CEMENT MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Generally, cement plants are fixed where the quarry of limestone is near bye. This saves the extra fuel
cost and makes cement somehow economical. Raw materials are extracted from the quarry and by
means of conveyor belt material is transported to the cement plant.
There are also various other raw materials used for cement manufacturing. For example, shale, fly ash,
mill scale and bauxite. These raw materials are directly brought from other sources because of small
requirements.
Before transportation of raw materials to the cement plant, large size rocks are crushed into smaller size
rocks with the help of crusher at quarry. Crusher reduces the size of large rocks to the size of gravels.

CEMENT MANUFACTURING PROCESS
PHASE III: RAW MEAL PREPARATION
Now cement plant grind the raw mix with the help of heavy wheel type rollers and
rotating table. Rotating table rotates continuously under the roller and brought
the raw mix in contact with the roller. Roller crushes the material to a fine
powder and finishes the job. Raw mix is stored in a pre-homogenization silos after
grinding raw mix to fine powder.

After final grinding, the material is ready to face the pre-
heating chamber. Pre-heater chamber consists of series of

Clinker After passing out from the kiln, clinkers are cooled by mean
of forced air. Clinker released the absorb heat and cool down
to lower temperature. Released heat by clinker is reused by
recirculating it back to the kiln. This too saves energy.

GRINDING
Final process of 5th phase is the
final grinding. There is a
horizontal filled with steel balls.
Clinker reach in this rotating
drum after cooling. Here, steel
balls tumble and crush the
clinker into a very fine powder.
This fine powder is considered as
cement. During grinding gypsum
is also added to the mix in small
percentage that controls the
setting of cement.
