cement mill operations in four ways: • More consistent quality (grade). The continual monitoring of the mill loading and the adjustment of the feed and separator results in reduced variations in cement grade. This has the added benefit of a more consistent product quality. The control strategy is designed to respond to disturbances in the

The liquid percentage at 1450 0 C can be estimated using the formula. % Liquid content (1450 0C) = 3.0 x A+2.25 x F+S. Where A=Al 2 O, F=Fe 2 O 3, S= MgO+K 2 O+Na 2 O+SO 3 In Clinker. The normal range of liquid phase is 22-27%. Burnability is a reference value for raw meal indicating how difficult it is to burn.

Cement manufacturing is a complex process that begins with mining and then grinding raw materials that include limestone and clay, to a fine powder, called raw meal, which is then heated to a sintering temperature as high as 1450 °C in a cement kiln. In this process, the chemical bonds of the raw materials are broken down and then they are ...

Raw Mill Optimization Module The Raw Mill Optimization option controls both the temperature, the feed rate to the mill and the separator speed in order to achieve the required throughput for kiln. Where starting the mill requires dampers to be moved, to change gas flow paths, the module will also respond to these effects to keep the system stable.
