Cement production is a thermal energy intensive process which requires heating solid particles up to 1450 C and cooling it down The process generates hot and CO 2 rich exhaust streams Fin order to study energy efficiency of the process authors like Mujumdar et al 2006 2007 developed detail models of process units while others
Sep 26 2020 cement manufacturing process cement is a material which is used to bind other materials together binding means it has an effect of gluing the substances together due to cohesive and adhesive action and then hardens and sets in order to become permanent cement is usually not used on its own it is mixed with other materials called aggregates
Steps of cement production process cement is one of the most common and important building materials it is a very critical ingredient because only cement has the ability to increase the viscosity of concrete which in turn provides the ability to lock sand and gravel together in concrete mixtures
