Raw meal residue and clinker litre weightPosted: 7th of March 2010

Dear sir,

1) What is the significance of the raw meal residue measurement on 90 micron and 212 micron sieves, respectively.?

2) In some plants, we use to determine the clinker litre weight of clinker size between-10mm +6 mm sieves, while in some plant determine the clinker litre weight of clinker size between -10mm & +5mm sives. Please clarify, what is the significance of this clinker size for measuring clinker litre weight.

With best regards,

Bulk Density out of RangePosted: 26th of February 2010

All,

When trying to verify book inventory against silo measurements, the only way for us to match the book tonnage is to have the bulk density go out of range. For example, normal range is 66-88 lb/ft3. Well, in order to make my inventory with the silo I need to use a density of 97 lb/ft3.

To me, this makes sense because the material is compacting further as the silo gets fuller, the question is however, if it is possible for the material density to increase all the way to 97 lb/ft3. In this case the material is fly ash, however we are experiencing the same problem with other additives and types of cement.

Grate cooler Plates bolts are DamagingPosted: 28th of September 2006
we have 3300tpd FLS plant, last year it was upgraded to 4000TPD capacity without any modification of Grate cooler. we are producing 4000tpd OPC clinker but the clinker temp is very high 250C after cooler.The only change done in cooler was instead of first grate 6 more grates were made stationary. Since upgradtion we are facing the problem, that extreme corner grate plates in 2nd chamber of the cooler are dislarging due bolts are getting shear.Is clinker high temp have any link with these bolts damaging?
FluxPosted: 20th of February 2010

Sir, We are using Bauxite and Iron ore as flux for type 1 clinker.Now that bauxite is costing more when compared to Iron ore Is it possible to reduce bauxite consumption cosiderably and use iron ore in its place..In that  case to what extent we go down in bauxite consumption and what are all the operational difficulties we  come across??Your valued advice is highly appreciated.

How to increase C3S in clinkerPosted: 18th of February 2010

Dear all

Our clinker designed with SR 2.5, LS 95.5. C3S according to calculation is arround 58%. If we wan to increase C3S upt to 62%, can we reduce SR and increase LS a bit without mineralization? Are there any problem with kiln operation and cement quality?

Anybody can share with me about this idea.

Thanks
