Clinker manufacturing begins with the mining of limestone. The limestone is crushed and transferred via the belt conveyor into the raw mill for grinding. The raw material grinding section comprises of a vertical roller mill, mill fan, separator and cyclone as well as all the ductwork and the control dampers.
Discrete Element Methods (DEM) is a numerical tool consolidated to the simulations of collisions in particulate systems. In this paper, the method was used to study the collisions between grinding media and grinding media and walls in ball mills, which is the most used unit operation in clinker grinding, the majority component of the cement. …
Moreover, utilizing specialized grinding techniques, such as pre-grinding or inter-grinding additives, can further enhance the grindability of clinker. Pre-grinding involves crushing the clinker before it enters the mill, while inter-grinding additives are blended with the clinker during the grinding process to reduce particle agglomeration …
The cement clinker grinding circuit reduces the feed from 80% passing size between 10 and 20 mm to passing 90 μm.The size reduction takes place in a two- compartment tube mill; the first compartment of the mill is …
RRSB, cements from ball mills generally have a rather low slope [n']. In a VRM the grinding takes place by pressure and shear force. The clinker passes within seconds between roller and table. The energy input to the material during one passage between grinding rollers and grinding track is relatively low. The thick-
Approximately 130 kWh of energy is consumed during the production of one ton of cement [1,2,3,4].It was reported that about one-third of this energy is consumed in the clinker grinding stage [5,6].The parameters directly influencing the energy consumption in the clinker grinding stage include the type of mill employed, rotational speed, power, …
The two-stage separator system uses different separators for raw material grinding and clinker grinding applications. Put simply, the system is made up of a dynamic separator and a static separator. ... Our best-in-class OK™ Mill is a globally successful vertical roller mill solution for grinding raw material, cement and slag. Its cutting ...
This dual-lobed design is optimum for clinker grinding because it supplies two distinct grinding zones – a low pressure zone and a high pressure zone – as shown in Figure 2. ... Vertical roller mills grinding an OPC of …

The comminution efficiency of a HPGR is better than ball mills such that it consumes 30–50 % of the specific energy as compared to a ball mill. Four circuit configurations of HPGR can be used in grinding of raw materials, clinker and slag such as : Pre-grinding unit upstream of a ball mill. Hybrid grinding. Semifinish grinding
Processes like grinding, transport of materials and crushing utilize machine drives and account for the majority of electricity consumption, as is evident in the result of the Manufacturing Energy Consumption Survey (MECS) in 1998 presented in Fig. 3.Process heating, by which clinker is made in large kilns, accounts for about 90% of …
However, despite the fact that more than 10 years has passed since the installation of the first VRM for clinker grinding was almost completed, many cement producers are still favouring ball mills for cement production when designing new integrated cement plants or grinding plants. ...

Clinker and gypsum, being mixed together in predetermined proportions, are fed to the grinding mills. Chemical gypsum, if used instead of natural gypsum, needs to be dried either by natural sun drying or by mechanical drying, before it is used with cooled and dried clinker for inter - grinding in mills.
