The cement raw meal was provided by the local cement industry in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China. The chemical compositions were presented in Table 4 . The pre-dried fluorine-containing sludge was then heated at 105 °C for 24 h until it had no moisture, and treated fluorine-containing sludge was milled to pass through #200 (75 μm) sieve.
Requirement of White Cement Raw Material. The mineral composition of white cement clinker is basically the same as that of ordinary portland cement (OPC) clinker, mainly C 3 S and C 2 S. The difference is that there is little iron phase mineral C 4 AF in white cement clinker, which is because Fe 2 O 3 has a great impact on the whiteness of cement.

The cement manufacturing process involves the extraction and processing of raw materials, such as limestone, clay, and shale, which are then heated in a kiln at high temperatures to form clinker.
This study explores the use of Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) slag as a sustainable alternative raw material in cement clinker production. The research demonstrates the synthesis of ferrite-rich clinker using EAF slag, achieving a …
Over the last century, Portland cement-based concrete has become the highest manufactured product on Earth in terms of volume. Concrete is used worldwide as a building material and is the most consumed substance on Earth after water (Sakai, 2009).The volume of concrete produced globally is approximately 5.30 billion m 3 per year (Roskos et al., 2011), …
During the third quarter of 2024, the company secured new awards worth $2.7 billion. At the end of Sept. 30, 2024, the consolidated backlog was $31.32 billion, up 20.5% from $26 billion a year ago.
Reliable fluoride measurement in raw meal, kiln feed, clinker and cement is a crucial basis for a successful implementation of clinker mineralization in cement plants. Regain compiled a …
However, reducing emissions from the process of cement making is not so straight forward, since it depends on different factors. According to (Summerbell et al., 2016) and (Maddalena et al., 2018), roughly 50% of the GHG emissions from the cement manufacturing process are material-derived, 40% are fuel-derived, electricity accounts for 5% of the …

The principal raw materials used in the manufacture of Ordinary Portland Cement are: Argillaceous or silicates of alumina in the form of clays and shales. Calcareous or calcium carbonate, in the form of limestone, chalk and marl …
Cement - Extraction, Processing, Manufacturing: Raw materials employed in the manufacture of cement are extracted by quarrying in the case of hard rocks such as limestones, slates, and some shales, with the aid of blasting when necessary. Some deposits are mined by underground methods. Softer rocks such as chalk and clay can be dug directly by excavators.
Sulphur appears as sulphides (from pyrites). It forms SO 2 in the kiln and with alkalis and oxygen, it forms alkali sulphates which vaporize in the burning zone of the kiln and condense on the raw meal in the colder zone. Though some amount of alkali sulphate in the clinker is of advantage for early strength, high sulphur content can result in increased SO 2 emission, choking of …

A: Online analyzers continuously measure the elemental composition of the entire raw material stream, in real time, being carried on a conveyor belt. The system provides an elemental analysis of the raw materials each minute, without touching the materials, and without errors and costs associated with material sampling for off-line laboratory analysis.

The raw materials for making cement are naturally occurring materials as well as some industrial waste products. The naturally occurring materials include: gypsum minerals (gypsum CaSO 4.2H 2 O, anhydrite CaSO 4), limestone minerals (limestone, chalk, dolomites), and clay minerals (clays and marbles, silica sand, bauxites).The industrial waste minerals used for making …
The use of alternative fuels in both combustion and production processes is known as co-processing in cement manufacturing. Waste is now being used to substitute primary fuel sources like coal, petroleum, and gas in the combustion process. They are usually from combustible municipal waste, refuse-derived fuels, biomass, or non-hazardous industrial and commercial …
