SUMMARY: The disposal of fly ashes from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) is becoming a growing environmental issue in Europe. In order to avoid landfilling and recycle MSWI fly ashes, initiatives aim to recycle them in cement production. While numerous studies have analyzed the impact of MSWI ashes application on the concrete quality and the leaching of potentially hazardous heavy meta...

an oil and gas well cementing in gachsaran formation, where sustained annular pressure has been reported in many wells, presents a big challenge in maroon field. the main challenges are preventing gas migration and achieving zonal isolation using a competent cement sealant system which is able to withstand downhole stresses and high temperatures during production cycles. unlike conventional cem...

Cement production is an energy-intensive process, so that the cement industry occupies a top position among other energy-consuming industries. Among the equipment used in cement industries, boilers are one of the energy-consuming equipment. Boilers are among the common heating equipment in industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities. In this paper, the performance of thermal oil bo...

The front cover shows ABB serving the cement manufacturing industry, which it has done since 1961 with turnkey installations, electrical equipment and automation systems. In 1990, ABB recognised the MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) business area as a natural extension to its technology portfolio. Since then, ABB has provided added value solutions that are independent from the installed pro...
