Specific Heat Consumption Design Specific heat consumption for the cement plant is < 715 kcal/ kg clinker.
The operating specific heat consumption of the plant is varying from 710-715 kcal/kg clinker with 5 stage operations which is expected to reduce further by 4-5 kcal/ kg clinker with enhancement in capacity to 6,000 tpd clinker.
With 4 stage operations, benefit to environment will be higher due to high waste heat based generation of power corresponding to higher exit temperature from preheater gases which will be used in WHR Boiler more efficiently. At 6,000 tpd clinker production with 4 stage operation, generation of power will be even higher with higher and more efficient heat recovery process thereby reducing GHG emission to atmosphere to a larger extent. However, the specific heat consumption at 4 stage operation will be more and expected to be around 725-730 kcal/ kg clinker. Specific Power Consumption

Total kWh/ t Clinker
58.2 53.49
At the current operating parameter of specific power consumption, there is a net reduction of 4.71 kWh/t clinker over the design specific power consumption.
The max power demand @ 4,500 tpd clinker, SPC of 58.2 kWh/t ~ 13.6 MW
The max power demand @ 6,000 tpd clinker, SPC of 53.5 kWh/t ~ 16.7 MW
The max power demand @ 6,000 tpd clinker is estimated as 16.7 MW based on current operating SPC of 53.49 kWh/t.
Thus, an overall increase in power demand is expected as 3.1 MW, but due to waste heat recovery based power plant in operation, grid connectivity addition will not be required.
Further process optimization (modification in raw mill cyclone to reduce pressure drop, installation of VFD in RABH fan, etc) with respect to capex infusion is expected to generate savings of about 0.5 kWh/t clinker.

CONCLUSION: Based on the above assessment, it can be concluded that the clinker line has the potential to produce 6,000 tpd, which may be achieved by de-bottlenecking/ optimization of process parameters and minor up-gradation in the equipment. The expenses for de-bottlenecking/ optimization and improvement measures envisaged to produce 6,000 tpd clinker is estimated as Rs 1,550 Lakh.

With increase in production to 6,000 tpd, plant key performance parameters namely Specific heat consumption is expected to reduce about 4-5 kcal/ kg clinker and Specific power consumption is expected to reduce about 0.5 kWh/t clinker. Saving in fuel and power shall also help in reduction of CO2 emission. At 6,000 tpd clinker production, there shall be enhanced power generation through Waste Heat Recovery System installed in the Cement Plant. Hence, the project activity will displace equivalent amount of electricity generation in fossil fuel based thermal power plant, thereby reducing GHG emission to atmosphere. Based on assessment of clinkerisation section, total annual clinker capacity of Durg Cement Plant of JKLC of 1.98 mio tpa clinker (6,000 tpd) is feasible with proposed de-bottlenecking/ optimization measures. JKLC, hence, may reckon the plant clinker capacity as 1.98 mio tpa.

1.2 PROJECT JKLC has already been granted environment clearance to set up 1.5 mio tpa clinker capacity under phase 2 which would expire in May 2019. However, it is noted that due to paucity of funds, they may not go for expansion of the cleared capacity. Instead, JKLC is looking forward to exploit the inherent potential of the operating cement plant to enhance the clinker production with marginal investment so as to sustain and compete in the market place. In view of the above, JKLC proposes to enhance the clinker capacity from present existing 1.5 mio tpa to 1.98 mio tpa which is feasible with available infrastructure, process optimization and modification and investment. The project proposal is stated as under:

CHAPTER 4: CAPACITY ASSESSMENT
4.1 INTRODUCTION
JK Lakshmi Cement Limited (JKLC) operates an Integrated Cement Manufacturing Unit having installed capacity of 1.5 mio tpa clinker along with 8 MW Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) based power plant at Malpuri Khurd village in Durg District of Chhattisgarh state. The integrated Cement Manufacturing Unit commenced commercial operation since 21st March 2015. WHR based power plant has commenced operation since 31st December 2017. The Cement Plant is having a modern dry process rotary kiln technology with single string-5 stage preheater and inline calciner. Considering efficient plant & machinery installed and infrastructure available in the plant, it is felt
that the Clinker Production Line has potential to produce more by process optimization and minor modification/ investment. Having already achieved the guaranteed parameters with respect to production level, JKLC has entrusted HOLTEC to carry out the technical feasibility study with a view to ascertain the adequacy of installed machineries for a production level of 1.98 mio tpa clinker (6,000 tpd) capacity on sustained basis, so that MoEF may be approached for enhancing the name plate capacity of the plant to 1.98 mio tpa.
This chapter covers the technical assessment of the JKLC’s Cement Manufacturing Unit at Durg, Chhattisgarh entailing the technical specifications of the plant & machinery, quality control systems, vis-à-vis the proposed capacity enhancement for a sustained operation.
It assesses following aspects for the proposed capacity enhancement of the existing plant:
• Adequacy of major equipment for production of 6,000 tpd clinker
• Adequacy of major storages for production of 6,000 tpd clinker
• Contemporariness of the plant design in keeping with industry norms (process, quality, technology, reliability, specific energy consumption and environmental standards)

Table 4.8: Kiln & Cooler Assessment
HOLTEC Assessment: Kiln � At the clinker production level of 6,000 tpd, expected kiln operating load works out to be
402 kW, leaving 100% margin over installed capacity 805 kW. Generally, a design margin of 75 - 100% is considered in the rating of installed motor over required operating power. The purpose is to take care of high torque needed during start - up and abnormal situations like ring formation, ball formation, fall of coating, etc. This margin will be about 100 % if the existing drive of rating 805 kW is continued to be used for a production level of 6,000 tpd clinker. Hence, the kiln main motor rating is adequate.
� Degree of filling preferably 12-16% is suggested. The degree of filling at the current kiln design RPM of 5, works out to 15.6%, which is closer to the limit. Hence, kiln rpm is proposed to be increased upto 5.5 by changing gear reduction ratio through modifications in gear box internals for flexibility in operation.
� Specific thermal loading works out to 5.1 Gcal/hr/m2, which is within the acceptable value of 5.5 Gcal/hr/m2
� Specific volumetric loading works out 7.3 tpd/m3, which is within the peak recommended loading and is manageable.

Capacity of Durg Cement Plant (DCP), Chhattisgarh
J K Lakshmi Cement Ltd.
17326 4.7
Cooler
� The specific cooler loading works out as 50 tpd/m2, which is higher than acceptable industry norms (< 45 tpd/m2). Higher thermal load leads to high wear and tear of the cooler internals and high clinker cooler discharge temperature.
� Installed cooling air at 6,000 tpd production works out as 1.76 Nm3/kg clinker, which is lower than the recommended 1.9-2.0 Nm3/kg clinker.
� Considering current operation with WHR, cooler operation at 6,000 tpd clinker production appears manageable at cooler loading of 50 tpd/ m2. However, the cooler operation needs to be reviewed on regular basis in this scenario.
� However, for most efficient operation and minimum wear & tear specific cooler loading needs to be reduced from 50 tpd/m2 to < 45 tpd/m2, by addition of one module in consultation with OEM. For extension of module following modifications are expected:
� Extended module foundation shall start from DPC tunnel bottom
� Roller crusher drive need to be relocated towards water spray tank
� Water spray system needs to be relocated.
� ESP discharge arrangement need to be relocated
� DPC vent filter & its fan need to be relocated
For the above actions, approximately 4-5 weeks downtime may be required.
� Last two fans may be replaced with higher capacity fans to increase the cooler installed air to around 1.9-2.0 Nm3/kg clinker.

HOLTEC Assessment: � From the above assessment of cyclone loading, PH Cyclones sizes are adequate for
operation at 6,000 tpd.
� The gas velocity in Riser, Down-comer duct, TAD and the gas residence time in PC have been estimated at 6,000 tpd and found within the permissible limit.
� The pan conveyor capacity has lesser margin of 32% over the required capacity which is lower than the specified norm and is considered manageable at 6,000 tpd.
� The kiln feed bucket elevator capacity has no margin and needs upgradation/ replacement.
The Kiln feed bucket elevator rated capacity is 302 and operating at 390 tph at a speed of 1.86 m/s. The elevator speed is already at its maximum, any up gradation by increasing the speed further does not appears to be feasible. Since margin in kiln feed system is already exploited the same needs to be upgraded/ replaced by a new kiln feed bucket elevator of 510 tph capacity.
4.3.4 Assessment of Kiln and PC Burner The assessment has been done based on 715 kcal/kg clinker of sp. heat consumption, fuel NCV of 5,788 kcal/kg fuel, fuel firing rate in kiln as 35% for 6,000 tpd clinker production. The details of assessment are given in Table 4.10.

HOLTEC Assessment: � Cooler ESP and ESP Fan volumetric capacity are adequate to meet the requirement of
6,000 tpd clinker with WHR operation. However, the ESP fan pressure is marginally exceeds the design. Since, there is sufficient margin available in the volumetric capacity of the ESP fan, this would compensate the shortfall in the pressure margin. In view of this the operation at 6,000 tpd is manageable. However, it is suggested to get the ESP fan upgraded in consultation with OEM to have adequate margin in the pressure for sustained operation.

With 4 stage operations, benefit to environment will be higher due to high waste heat based generation of power corresponding to higher exit temperature from preheater gases which will be used in WHR Boiler more efficiently. At 6,000 tpd clinker production with 4 stage operation, generation of power will be even higher with higher and more efficient heat recovery process thereby reducing GHG emission to atmosphere to a larger extent. However, the specific heat consumption at 4 stage operation will be more and expected to be around 725-730 kcal/ kg clinker. Specific Power Consumption
kWh/t clinker

LS Crusher 2 1.9
Raw Mill 31.5 28.7
Pyro processing 21 17.29
Coal Grinding 3.7 5.6
Total kWh/ t Clinker 58.2 53.49
At the current operating parameter of specific power consumption, there is a net reduction of 4.71 kWh/t clinker over the design specific power consumption. The max power demand @ 4,500 tpd clinker, SPC of 58.2 kWh/t ~ 13.6 MW The max power demand @ 6,000 tpd clinker, SPC of 53.5 kWh/t ~ 16.7 MW The max power demand @ 6,000 tpd clinker is estimated as 16.7 MW based on current operating SPC of 53.49 kWh/t. Thus, an overall increase in power demand is expected as 3.1 MW, but due to waste heat recovery based power plant in operation, grid connectivity addition will not be required. Further process optimization (modification in raw mill cyclone to reduce pressure drop, installation of VFD in RABH fan, etc) with respect to capex infusion is expected to generate savings of about 0.5 kWh/t clinker.

6 Particulate Matter mg/Nm3 <30 <30
There shall be slight increase in dust emission due to higher production level. JKLC to ensure particulate emission to less than 30 mg/Nm3 by enhancing the bag house volume/ ESP field.
JKLC shall implement SNCR system to control NOx in the cement plant. SOX is within permissible limit. CONCLUSION:
Based on the above assessment, it can be concluded that the clinker line has the potential to produce 6,000 tpd, which may be achieved by de-bottlenecking/ optimization of process parameters and minor up-gradation in the equipment. The expenses for de-bottlenecking/ optimization and improvement measures envisaged to produce 6,000 tpd clinker is estimated as Rs 1,550 Lakh. With increase in production to 6,000 tpd, plant key performance parameters namely Specific heat consumption is expected to reduce about 4-5 kcal/ kg clinker and Specific power consumption is expected to reduce about 0.5 kWh/t clinker. Saving in fuel and power shall also help in reduction of CO2 emission. At 6,000 tpd clinker production, there shall be enhanced power generation through Waste Heat Recovery System installed in the Cement Plant. Hence, the project activity will displace equivalent amount of electricity generation in fossil fuel based thermal power plant, thereby reducing GHG emission to atmosphere. Based on assessment of clinkerisation section, total annual clinker capacity of Durg Cement Plant of JKLC of 1.98 mio tpa clinker (6,000 tpd) is feasible with proposed de-bottlenecking/ optimization measures. JKLC, hence, may reckon the plant clinker capacity as 1.98 mio tpa.
