The article describes retrofitting of the wet process cement production line at OAO Ivano-Frankivsk-Cement, performed in collaboration with the Danish company FLSmidth. The plant became the first company in Ukraine to work according to the modern dry process, and signif...
Improvements to the ETA cooler by Claudius Peters, Germany, are considered. After commissioning at the cement plant of Holcim Untervaz in Switzerland, three more coolers of this type were installed at all three Holcim plants in this country. The experience of operating ...
The new grinding plant from Christian Pfeiffer, Germany, was commissioned at OAO IvanoFrankovsk-Cement. Due to a high demand for cement in Ukraine the mill was first run in an open circuit, and after 7 months — in a closed circuit, boosting performance by 18 %.
The paper proposes a method for reducing specific energy consumption by cement grinding in ball and tube mills (BTM). The results after modernization of aspiration systems according to the proposed method at the cement plants of AO EUROCEMENT Ukraine are provide...
The improved return water supply arrangement for the preparation of slurry at the cement plant of the Polar Division of OAO MMC Norilsk Nickel (CP PD, OAO MMC Norilsk Nickel) is reviewed. As a result, the wastewater discharge was reduced.
A mobile unit for grinding and packaging of cement developed and manufactured by Cemengal, Spain is described. The unit is housed in transport containers, is easy to install and makes it possible to produce more than 90 tonnes of ordinary Portland cement and 60 tonnes o...
It is shown that the traditional approach to the implementation of MES/MOM projects consisting in the use of a complete, integrated MES/MOM solution often leads to unsatisfactory results not meeting the customer’s expectations. An alternative evolutionary approach, whic...
The principles for an advisor system based on generalized classical and fuzzy methods, using in addition the information obtained from the machine vision system, are described. With regard to the expert opinion, the most critical parts of the kiln were identified, where...
