For optimum clinker quality
• The kiln feed chemistry must be of low variability ( must be good uniformity)
• The raw meal must be adequately ground
• The coal ash must be uniformly incorporated into the clinker
• The clinker must be rapidly cooled from the burning zone temperature.

C2S = 2.867S-0.754C3S
C3A = 2.65A-1.69F
C4AF = 3.04 F
Where C = total CaO-free CaO-0.7SO3

4 MAJOR COMPOUNDS IN CLINKER
* Depend on type of cement produce
By Bogue calculation only give potential clinker phase but by microscopic canDetermine the real clinker phase.
C3S (Alite Properties)
• Main strength constituent in cement
• Higher initial strength and good final strength
• Rapid hydration
• Contains impurities: Mg, Al, Fe
• Typically 50-62 % of clinker
• Difficult to burn kiln feed if C3S >65%
C2S (Belite) properties
• Low early strength but good final strength
• Slow hydration
• Contains impurerities:alkalis,Al,Fe,flouride
• Typically 16-24 % of clinker
• Clinker grindability adversely impacted by higher C2S.
C3A Properties
• Rapid hydration- gypsum added to control rate
• Early strength
• Typically 5-12 % of clinker
• Importance impact on clinker quality:
-Plasticity/workability
-Resistance to sulfate in soil/water exposure.
C4AF Properties
• Governs the color of cement i.e
higher C4AF = darker cement
• Hardly any strength development
• Slow to moderate hydration
• Typically 7- 12 %
Alkali Equivalent (NaEq)Na2O+0.658K2O
• Combines both alkalis expressed to equivalent Na
• Importance for product specification• Influence cement performance• Setting time decrease with increase the alkali
sulfate. -can lead to flowability problem -can react with same aggregates and lead to
concrete durability problems• Influence kiln stability as volatile compounds

REDUCING/OXIDISING
• Reducing condition if:
- Lack of Oxygen
- Poor mix of fuel and fuel
- Coarse of fuel particles• Symptoms:
- CO2
- SO2
- Volatilization
• Oxidizing condition if:
- Enough oxygen
- Good Mix (burner)
- Fine Fuel• Signs:
- Stable O2
-Reduced amount of build-up
- improve kiln stability
Factors effecting clinker reactivity
• CHEMICAL COMPOSITION -C3S, C2S, C3A, C4AF, SO3, ALKALIS, FREE LIME.
• PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION OF RAW MEAL 200UM, 90UM, 63UM
• MINEROLOGY FORMATION C3S- CRYSTAL SIZE, BIGGER/SMALLER SHAPE-ROUND OR SHARP EDGE C3A- ORTHOROMBIC - CUBIC (if more soluble alkali-sulfate) - Periclase
FACTORS INFLUENCING CLINKER TEXTURE
Influence parameters Specific factor
Raw mix properties -chemical composition, major & minor elements
-fineness and Mineralogy
-homogeneity
Fuel type - Coal ash
Burning condition -burning time/temperature
- Kiln atmosphere O2(reducing condition), NOX
Cooling condition -rate of cooling
HOW TO INCREASE CLINKER REACTIVITY?
• Increase the C3S ( but not more than 65%)• Fast cooling rate• Fast heating rate, need short flame & hot• Ovoid over burning to control alite size max
40um• Control the SO3/Alkali >1• Optimize the PSD of raw meal• Homogenity of raw meal• Avoid reducing condition environment inside kiln.
