The high-shear colloidal mixer is generally recognised as the most efficient method of mixing cement based grouts. Only recently however has this technology been applied to the production of cemented rockfill (CRF) for use in underground mines in North America. Traditionally, paddle type mixers have been used to produce the cement based slurries required for the preparation of CRF. While consid...

Concerns about global Climate and sustainable energy are perhaps among the most inevitable and fanatical issues of the present time. To tackle concerns arising from high energy consumption and its adverse environmental impact, in recent years has caused manufacturers to establish energy management cell and policymakers to formulate policies. These Policies and required to be firmly held, in ord...

In cement plant, since all processes are chemical and irreversible, monitoring and control is a critical factor. If the process is not controlled at any stage, the final product can be damaged or lost. Thus, in such environments, considering the quality of the product at each state is essential. Also, to control the process, communication among different parts of production line is essential. T...

Solidia CementTM is a non-hydraulic cement composed primarily of low-lime containing calcium silicate phases such as wollastonite / pseudowollastonite (CaO·SiO2), and rankinite (3CaO·2SiO2). This contrasts the high-lime alite (3CaO·SiO2), belite (2CaO·SiO2), tricalcium aluminate (3CaO·Al2O3), tetracalcium aluminum ferrite (4CaO·Al2O3·Fe2O3), and gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O) phases that comprise ordinary...

Problems relating to disposal of sludge accumulating at waste-water treatment plants (WWTP) in Croatia are described in the paper. The possibility and adequacy of using ash obtained through incineration of sludge is considered. A special emphasis is placed on the significance of ash in concrete industry during production of cement mortar and concrete. Results of worldwide research conducted so ...

In recent years, inventory management is continuous challenge for all organizations not only due to heavy cost associated with inventory holding, but also it has a great deal to do with the organizations production process. Cement industry is a growing sector of Pakistan's economy which is now facing problems in capacity utilization of their plants. This study attempts to identify the key strat...

We are pleased to submit our white paper report on the Reduced Emission Oxygen (REO) kiln. The document outlines the basic technology and the operational differences between the REO kiln and a conventional cement plant. We trust that you will find the results as exciting as we do and look forward moving this next generation cement technology to market. The REO kiln represents a paradigm shift i...
