Line #1 – Commissioning in September 2009:
Cement Plant:

- Usage of secondary fuels – Up to 10% substitution rate (wood chips and
pharmaceutical wastes).
Phase #1 – Start-Up:
• Ensure a thorough cold commissioning and testing – Control management pressure to
delay the start-up if necessary.
• Work up properly all pre-conditions between parties, especially regarding clinker C3S,
temperature and content of additives.
• Start the mill in complete ‘manual’ mode. Set a lower fineness target Objective to
observe and feel the mill.

• Adjust hydraulic settings accordingly after this first phase to ensure a “sustainable”
capability of successful start-up when pressing the ‘start’ button for the next times.
• Increase grinding pressure dP (mill) is decreasing since we are grinding faster and
more finer particles are leaving the system faster than coarser particles.
• Measure fineness after a few hours Adjust grinding pressure and draft. Keep in mind:
Rollers and grinding pressure give Blaine.
Separator gives rejects.

• A lower draft (or total flow) increases the efficiency of the separator Never overlook
this aspect.
Clinker Grinding:
Expected Output (t/h) = Nominal Output / (Targeted Blaine / Original Blaine) ^ 1.4
Formula can be applied to power consumption (or at motor shaft only)
© by LOESCHE GmbH
Expected Power Consumption at R90µ = 19% Nominal Value * (1.04 / 1.14).
