Raw material
Limestone is the predominant raw material. The material is delivered to the crusher where it is reduced to chunks by crushing.
Crushed limestone and the other raw materials are stored in a hall to protect them from moisture. In most cases the quarry and the cement plant are in different locations. Therefore separate or stand-alone electrical supply equipment will be required.
Raw-material preparation
In the raw mill, the material chunks are ground finer to allow high-quality blending. As the raw mill is one of the biggest energy consumers in the cement process, it is important to adjust the grinding plant in order to minimize energy losses.
It is essential to use a process automation system to optimize the mill process, which in turn mini-mizes the energy consumption. The raw meal is finally transported to the homogenization silo.
clinker production
The pyroprocessing system involves three steps: preheating, calcining and sintering. Calcination is the core portion of the process. The raw meal is continuously weighed and fed into the top cyclone of the preheater. The material is heated by hot air rising from the kiln. Inside rotary kilns the raw material is transformed into clinker at 1,450° C.
From the kiln, the clinker goes to the clinker cooler and then via a pan conveyor to the clinker silo for storage.
The main requirement for low emissions and low energy consumption is an optimized kiln operation. Therefore, the burning process must be monitored continuously using modern process technology, e.g., gas analyzers.
clinker grinding/storage
Clinker is extracted from the clinker storage and sent to feed bins for further proportioning with gypsum and additives before passing the cement mill.
During finish milling, the clinker is ground with other materials (for special finished product characteristics) into a fine powder. Many plants use a roller press to pregrind the clinker and the gypsum. These materials are sent through ball or vertical mills which perform the remaining grinding. The grinding process occurs in a closed system with an air separator that sorts the cement particles according to size. Material that has not been completely ground is sent through the system again.
The highly energy-consuming process needs automation and optimization to ensure today’s quality demands.
Packaging/shipping
Finished cement is stored in large silos. It can be loaded directly into trucks, railroad cars or ships in bulk for distribution to customers, or packaged in bags for delivery on standard pallets.
As the dispatching facilities are normally also used for the weighing and loading/unloading procedures of incoming materials, these systems must also support the processing of feedstock deliveries.
Modern dispatching systems offer all-out logistical support and make the dispatching process transparent to the operators.

From reducing cO2 output to saving costs – there are many reasons to increase your plant’s energy efficiency. together we can reduce your emissions and energy consumption as much as possible. Below you’ll find just a few of our key offers. Don’t hesitate to ask us for detailed investment and ROI information!
Improve your footprint – and your bottom line
make your drives into energy savers
In a cement plant, drives account for more than 90 percent of the total electricity used. With SICEMENT Drives, you can save a large proportion of that consump-tion. For example, depending on the application, our motors can reduce power loss up to 40 percent. In addition, variable-speed drives with frequency converters adjust the rate of flow to the actual need – resulting in up to 70 per-cent savings.
Intelligent software tools show you how fast you can achieve your ROI. Typically, by replacing existing motors with our new, energy-efficient IE2/IE3 motors, your investment pays for itself after only 18 to 36 months – and this is just one example of how to improve your bottom line through energy efficiency.
cut costs with enhanced control
Another key to saving energy is process optimization with our CEMAT system. When the process is optimized, the power consumption for each ton of produced cement is reduced. Advanced process control methods can also be easily inte-grated with CEMAT – usually leading to three to ten percent lower energy consumption.
Our expert systems SICEMENT Automa-tion MCO and KCS help you identify potentials for energy savings and make them a reality – for example, by optimiz-ing the kiln and the mill processes.
turn waste into value
There are many more ways to increase energy efficiency. One of them is to turn process waste heat into electricity that feeds your plant. Together with qualified and trusted partners, we’ll help you implement a waste-heat recovery facility that will pay for itself in a very short time.
