About this topic
Foreword
It was about 40 years back that I had the first opportunities of peeping into cement plants and tasting the flavours of cement technology. Within the first few years of my professional exposure, I had realized how complex and dynamic the cement processes were. I understood that two kilns or two mills of the same design and dimension might not behave in identical manners even in comparable situations. A quantitative and numerical understanding of the processes involved was the only way to succeed in achieving the targeted results.
Those days, I had the "Cement Engineers Handbook " by Otto Labahn as my bible for all numerical appreciation of the unit operations. Although the book provided the procedures of calculations for a range of problems, I still had to maintain my own diary to apply the procedures to the actual situation.
In the 70s, apart from the revised editions of the Hand Book by Otto Labahn, I had the added benefits of the "Cement-Data-Book" by Walter H.Duda, Cement Manufacturers Hand Book by Kurt E. Peray, etc. While Duda opened up a comprehensive coverage of numerical data, diagrams, tables and description of processes and machinery, Peray provided a host of engineering formulae that represented the basic tools for gaining a better understanding of the cement engineering and technology. Notwithstanding the availability of these publications, the cement plant engineers and chemists had to undertake the laborious tasks of making their own calculations with specific input of data. The books provided only the guidelines, procedures and approaches.
Quite contrary to the past trends, "Mathcement" is a serious endeavour to rescue the cement plant operational personnel from the above ennui. The modern computer facility and accompanying software have provided new opportunities of easy computing. M/s Softideas Pvt.Ltd. have relied on all the past hand books, or at least the majority of them, and superimposed "Mathcad" on them. The authors of "Mathcement" have tried to identify the specific computational requirements of the practicing cement engineers and more particularly of the personnel operating in the cement plants.
Hence,"Mathcement" does not suffer from the strains of exhaustiveness in coverage. On the contrary, it provides a sharp focus on practical and day-to-day needs of practicing professionals. The entire e-book has been designed in 4 parts; the first one covers essentially the unit operations of a plant starting from the limestone quarry to the cement dispatch as well as the essential requirements of quality checks and raw materials.

The second part of the book covers all the auxiliaries such as de-dusting, conveyors, fans and blowers, water, insulation, laboratory and plant site conditions. The third part of the e-book takes care of the limited number of physical, chemical and thermo-chemical tables that are essentially required for engineering calculations. The last, but not the least, is the fourth part of the e-book that takes care of refreshing the readers about some of the essential basics of cement chemistry.
On the whole, from the e-book "Mathcement", any practicing cement professional will find a way to solve his or her problem and would obtain the results by the touch of the keyboard only by putting in the input values specific to his or her requirements. I did not realize earlier that computations could be so pleasurable, so easy, so rapid and yet, so precise and useful.
I am sure, all the concerned professionals would derive immense benefit from this innovative e- book named "Mathcement".

Topic: The nature of mathematics of cement
About this topic
Mathematics of cement is not a distinct branch of cement technology in a way we understand in our day-to-day interaction.It is rather an approach to technical analysis in which scientists; engineers and technologists make use of mathematical symbols in the statement of a problem and then draws upon known mathematical theorems to support reasoning.The approach is thus applicable to specific subjects dealt in cement technology like crushing, grinding, pyro-processing and so on.
Every approach to analysis of a problem associated with design, operation or optimisation in relation to cement is necessarily exemplified by mathematics.We will conventionally use the term mathematics of cement to cover the entire spectrum of describing problems and solution techniques using mathematical techniques.The mathematical techniques that are used can stretch from simple geometry to matrix algebra, differential equations, programming etc.It is our intention to introduce various fundamental and advanced mathematical techniques to solve day-to-day technical and operational problems that are faced by cement technologists or scientists.

Topic: Mathematics of cement as against non-mathematical approach
About this topic
Mathematics of cement is basically an approach to analysis of cement technology and related problems.Therefore, it does not fundamentally differ from any non mathematical approach to such analysis.It should be noted that the fundamental purpose of any theoretical analysis, regardless of its approach, is to arrive at some conclusions from a given set of assumptions or data via a process of reasoning.The major difference between "mathematical approach" and "non-mathematical or literary approach" would lie in the fact that in the case of the former, the assumptions and conclusions are stated in mathematical symbols rather than in words and in mathematical equations rather than in explanatory text.Also, in case of mathematical approach, we use mathematical theorem,which exist in abundance to draw upon for reasoning in place of literary logic. Truly speaking, symbols and words are equivalent.You can see this in the fact that symbols are mostly expressed in words.It should, therefore, hardly matter which one is chosen over the other.But we all know that symbols are more convenient in deductive reasoning and hence they form the basic building blocks of mathematics.
Mathematics has the basic advantage of leading from explicit assumptions and precise reasoning at every stage of solution.Mathematical theorems normally have the "if-then" form such that to tap the "then" part, which is the result part of the theorem,one has to make sure that the "if " part, that is the condition part, conforms to the assumptions made.
Many solutions are well depicted by geometrical modeling.However, geometrical solutions have their limitations arising out of dimensional limitation.For instance if the number of variables are three, the graphical treatment of the solution would call for 3-d graph which is difficult to draw . However, if the number of variables happens to be four or more,making such higher dimensional graph becomes practically impossible.Thus mathematical equations are better suited to handle problems involving many variables.
We can, thus, summarise the advantage we get by adopting mathematical approach against literary approach as follows:1) Mathematical language of statement are more concise and precise2) Mathematics provide us with many techniques and theorems to adopt readily3) It ensures that all assumptions are made explicit4) It enables treatment of multi-variable situations (n-variables)
Questions are sometimes raised about how realistic mathematical solutions are?. We must remember that any theoretical approach to an analysis , mathematical or otherwise,falls within the domain of reality. Thus ,all such treatments are only extracts from real world.It is always unrealistic to the extent that it fails to take into consideration some of the complex real life influences.If we could cover real life situations in its entirety, we could then possibly play God.

Finally, we may like to compare mathematical approach to a "mode of transportation" to be used in our journey from a start point to destination point at a fast speed.Assuming that you would like to go from home to a park which is situated 3 km away, you you normally pick your car as your mode of transportation so that you can reach your destination fast. You may also choose to walk the distance to make it a part of your aerobic excercise.Thus, to be able to reach your conclusions faster, as a theorist, you would prefer to ride the vehicle of ' appropriate mathematical techniques". It,however, goes without saying that you have to learn to drive this vehicle and some one has to build the vehicle.The skill you will acquire will serve you in good stead for a long time come and so it should be worth its while to learn them.We have, on our part, tried to build a good and friendly vehicle called "MathCement" covering mathematical approach to solving cement problems in technology and operations.

Topic: Why create a mathematical model (MathCement model)?
About this topicWe live our life in the real world in all its glory.It is the nature that we observe with awe and wonder at the marvel of creation.As human beings our thinking brains have always been inspired to continuously try and convert natural phenomena to the best of our advantage.For example,we discovered electricity by observing lightning and made it work for us in thousands of different ways.
There are people in this world for whom the existing solutions are not acceptable.So they look for newer solutions by first rejecting the existing solution.As the next step they create an approximation of the real life situation or object which can be experimented with.This representative of real life situation or object is a model.A model,thus, tries to replicate a real life situation or object as closely as possible.This model greatly facilitates experiment since it is much simpler to handle and manipulate without the danger of damaging or hurting the original real life situation.Thus scientists can make changes in the model or subject the model to different conditions and evaluate its effect .They then project, how it would behave when real life situation is subjected to similar changed conditions.As a next step, such findings need to be approved by the appropriate authority.Then, after the approval,they can finally introduce the changes in real life and see how best the predictions are met.
Thus, through a model, we see the future behaviour of a current real life situation under controlled conditions. This helps us to take a decision whether to adopt the new solution or not.
When the representative model is built with mathematical symbols and variables are related to each other by equations to closely represent the assumptions and constraints and applied with appropriate mathematical theorem leading to conclusions, we have created a mathematical model.
Now by varying the values of the variables we can foresee the resultant predictive behaviour of the model.Computer helps us further to arrive at the conclusions very fast. We can thus analyse the performance of the real life situations very quickly without disturbing the original object.

In a raw grinding mill measurement is carried out at inlet (point 1) and outlet (point 2).Gas flow rate at inlet is measured and gas analysis is done to find oxygen and carbon dioxide content at both points.Based on the given data find the rate of false air entry into the mill between inlet and outlet.
Statement of problem
False air entry into grinding mill system affects drying operation as well as power consumption.Excessive false air lowers the temperature of hot gases which affects heat transfer efficiency and also lowers the heat available for drying of raw material.This is because heat is required to go into the false air to raise its temperature to mill ext gas temperature.As also the mill fan has to handle higher quantity of gases, the power consumption goes up.As more gas volume has to pass through the mill system which results in additional pressure loss , also adds to additional power consumption for the mill fan. Controlling of false air to reasonable value is, therefore, very important.

Calculation algorithm
Oxygen and Carbon dioxide in gases at various points in the system can be measured .We consider, for simplification, that air has 21% Oxygen and 0 % Carbon dioxide by volume. We can then calculate for difference in values of Oxygen and Carbo dioxide at different points and evaluate the percentage of false air with ref. to unmixed gases.For ease of understanding, we call the mixed gases as the mixture of gas and false air and gas as unmixed gas (without false air).Percentage of false air will be referred to as percentage of gas (unmixed gas) at first point (mill entry point for example).
As false air enters it dilutes the hot flue gas supplied to mill for drying purposes.So Oxygen level goes up and carbon dioxide level goes down.

Apparent degree of calcination CD:
Degree of calcination is worked out based on the ratio between loss of CO2 content from partially calcined raw Meal and total CO2 content in raw meal .It implies ,therefore, if the lower the value of balance CO2 content higher is the degree of calcination.
CO2 content in Partially Calcined Meal ,CO2CM as measured from samples collected from kiln inlet, is influenced by circulating dust at kiln inlet. This dust is practically 100 percent calcined and falsely reduces the value of CO2CM. This result shows higher degree of calcination as is termed as apparent degree of calcination CD .
To find the nett or actual degree of calcination without the influence of circulating dust, we employ correction factor:

Topic: Raw-mix Design based on Lime Saturation Factor
About this topic
Use this worksheet to design a two component raw mix to attain a desired lime saturation factor in the raw mix
Raw mix design is a process of determining the quantitative proportions of the components of Raw mix ensuring that the clinker produced from such mix attain desired chemical and mineralogical composition.
This method is applicable to two raw material components, with the lime saturation factor selected for the clinker. To simplify the following calculations, symbols are used for the designation of the clinker components, the raw materials, and the coal ash; these symbols are placed in table below.

Let us consider a typical flue gas having the following volumetric composition as shown in input data.
It is known that molal volume of any gas at NTP is 22.4 m3. That means, say for example, oxygen has a molecular weight of 32 .So, 32 Kg. of oxygen will occupy a volume of 22.4m3
at NTP
Density of a mixture of dry gases at NTP can be calculated by knowing the volumetric percentages of individual gases present in the mixture.

Topic: Mass Balance in multiple preheater stages
Caution - switch to manual calculation mode ( deselect math>automatic calculation) .Since the length of this calculationis very big -you maynot get consistant result under automatic mode of calculation.
About this topic
In this topic we have worked out detailed procedure for calculating mass balance of multiple stages of preheater .The example is based on the following:1) preheater with 5 stages ( count from bottom most cyclone)2) precalciner3) Tertiary air through separate duct.4) Tertiary air tapped from kiln hood5) Fuel type is coal,oil or gas
ConventionA suspension type cyclone preheater is divided into stages.In our calculation we will call the lowest stage as stage 1 and subsequent higher stages as 2, 3 ,4 etc.A stage consists of a cyclone,the gas duct leading to the cyclone and meal chute below the cyclone.

Consider a compressor delivering compressed air at a certain rate at a defined gauge pressure. The average demand of the system is less than the capacity. Allowable lower limit of gauge pressure of compressed air is known. The receiver capacity is also given. As the receiver pressure falls to lower limit the compressor comes on load and continues till the pressure reaches the upper limit. For the given set of data, find 1) how many times the compressor will come on load per hour. Assume temperature of air is kept constant

This worksheet can be used to calculate the required bore of a cylinder in a compressed air system to activate the piston so that a predefined force can be developed to clamp a workpiece .Minimum cylinder pressure is known and also the atmospheric pressure is known and cylinder efficiency is known. The compressed air entering the cylinder at a certain pressure transmit the same pressure on to the piston. More and more compressed air come into the cylinder, as the piston moves, to maintain the pressure. The system is used to transmit the force through the piston rod. Cylinder bore being fixed ,the force can reduce in case of falling pressure. Calculation ,therefore, should be carried out for minimum sustained pressure..

When you save money in a bank or invest in finance scheme a certain fixed sum, you earn interest. Interest rates are normally indicated on yearly basis and is called nominal interest. The principal amount invested, however, increase every month as interest amount is credited. It is also normal that new monthly balance including interest earned in the previous month earns interest. This is known as compounding of interest (earning interest on interest) which results into higher effective earning. In this worksheet, you workout effective rate of interest and nominal rate of interest when the final balance at the end of the deposit period is known.

So we can define the present value of an annuity as the amount that we can borrow ,knowing the amount of monthly payments, the rate of interest and the number of payments or installments.
Let the present value be Vp
But this is the total outgo of your fund over the repayment period and does not mean that you can buy a machine of this current value. To find out the amount of money the bank will advance as a loan, which will be in tern the current value of the machine you can purchase , you have to find the current value of this annuity.

Did you know?(DYK001)Recent research shows that many industrial wastescan be successfully used as replacement of cement
in preparation of concrete.This can reduce current (2005)demand for cement by 25%.This will serve to minimise
disposal problem associated with such industrial wastes and reduce global energy demand.

Cement substitute
Did you know?(DYK002)Working with cement and concrete consumes 40% of
the global energy demand.And a reduction of cement and concrete usage by up to 25% by alternative material
could save 10% of total energy requirements.This also means a reduction of 400 million MT of CO2 release per
annum.Source: World Cement: January 2005
Energy and environment
Did you know?(DYK003)Fans used in cement plants are mostly of centrifugal
type.The flow characteristics, through a fan, are governed by three basic rules:
1) Flow rate is proportional to speed.2) Pressure developed is a square function of speed.
3) Power required varies as cube of speed. Source:

Did you know?(DYK005)Atomic weight of any element, when expressed in
grams, contains 6.02X1023 numbers of atoms of that element.Thus, 16 gm of Oxygen or 14 gm of Nitrogen will
have equal number of their respective atoms and this number will be equal to 6.02X1023, also called Avagadro
Number.Source:

Did you know?(DYK006)Average pressure exerted by Earth's atmosphere, at sea level, is equal to the pressure exerted by a 760mm tall column of Mercury at its base, .This pressure is called
"Normal atmospheric pressure" or "Standard atmospheric pressure" and has a value of 101325 Pa
(Pascals).It's also expressed as 1 atm or 1kgf/cm2

Did you know?(DYK007)Natural gas is a mixture of hydrocarbon gases mainly of
Methane.But it may also contain Ethane, Propane, Butane and Pentane.It is called natural gas as it occurs
naturally in nature, under the Earths' surface. Natural gas is a fossil fuel like coal and is formed from the remains of
plants, animals and micro-organisms under intense pressure and heat over millions of years.

Did you know?(DYK008)Natural gas, which erupts through fissures in the earth's crust, from below the surface of the Earth can ignite due to natural phenomenon like lightning.Such resultant fires awed the early civilization.Early Greeks assigned divinity to such natural spring of fire and created a temple around one such eruption. This is known as Oracle of Delphi.

Did you know?(DYK009)There are only three classes of equipment in a cement
plant. These are 1) Conveying equipment, 2) Storage equipment and 3) Process equipment.
Again process equipment can be classified in two two types i.e. 1)Physical process,(when composition of
incoming material does not change during the process) 2) Chemical process(when composition of incoming
material changes during the process). Source:
