Factory-made composite cements have been available for over30 years but until a recent legislative change intended to promotesustainable cement production they have only been supplied intolocalised markets. Now, wide ranges for composite cements areavailable across Europe which incorporate limestone, fly ash orblast furnace slag as secondary constituents (additives).These factory-made composite cements are produced and suppliedwidely by the whole cement industry for use in either bulk deliveryor packed in bags.

The significant benefits of our process solution lie in our uniquecapability of being able to harness the blending action of theMULTICOR® Mass Flow Meter to homogeneously and accuratelyblend the cement master material e.g. Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) with secondary constituents on a sustainable basis.

By application of our process know-how, the MULTICOR® BlendingSystem differs from the typically employed method of ‘BatchBlending and Storage’ and allows the cement producer to securethe advantages of sustainable continuous blending.

Future Orientated SolutionSchenck Process Blending System

Sustainable CompositeCement Production for:

Blend to store at densephase conveying ratesof 120t/hr

Blend to vehicle loadingat feed rates of 400t/hr

Blend to bagging linesat feed rates of 120t/hr

Future Orientated Solutionin Production Manufacturing

Normal cement production processes are based on producing and storing goodsin the expectation of them being consumed and in manufacturing terms, this isusually characterised as a ‘Push’ principle.

The ‘Manufacturing Push’ principle can be an inefficient use of both resource andcapital, resulting in increased inventory/stock levels and the tying up of cash.

Therefore, the Schenck Process MULTICOR® Blending System facilitates the‘Manufacturing Pull’ principle by only producing goods when they are ordered –no need for the cement manufacturer to store blended production in the expectationof consumption. Thus, the cement manufacturers’ inventory/stock levels can bereduced and cash freed to be used more efficiently elsewhere in the business.

Additionally, by continuously blending after cement production the Schenck Processsolution negates the need for inter-grinding and therefore, further reduces theproducer’s operational costs.

Future Standardsof Composite Cements

Schenck Process understands the drivers for continuous production of composite cements on a sustainable basis. Through ourindustry experience, continual development of market leading technology and application of our process knowledge we can addsignificant value to your business.

Integration of sustainability into all its operations now sets the worldwide cement industry’sagenda. The implications for cements are already clear; their embodied energy and carbonfootprint must be reduced over time but without jeopardising product performance.The increasing availability of blended cements such for use in concrete, mortar and groutplus the continued production of niche Masonry cements for use only in mortar will help theindustry to meet its social and environmental obligations and achieve necessary economicobjectives.

A commitment to the environment runs throughout many of the process solutions offeredby the Schenck Process Group e.g. systems designed to optimise the use of alternative fuels(energy from waste), coal-washing plants (to reduce airborne pollution), environmentalcontrols in power plants (to reduce NOx and SOx emissions) and we are proud of thecontribution that we make.

Over and above enabling cement producers to reduce their investment levels in capitalequipment and operating costs, utilising the MULTICOR® Blending System to homogeneouslyand accurately blend cement with a secondary constituent contributes to users being ableto reduce their environmental pollutants e.g. CO2 emissions.

A cement produced with 30%

What is behind this revolutionary process innovation?

Our unique solution is the innovative application of our expertise in bulk materialhandling and process technology combined with market leading process equipmenti.e. the MULTICOR® Mass Flow Meter. With >2,000 MULTICOR®s in the market,developing its use for the production of composite cement on a continuous basis isan application extension of this very successful longstanding product.

MULTICOR® Operating Principle:

Continuous fixed-speed rotating measuring wheel contained within a dust-tight body

Bulk material enters the centre of the measuring wheel and is centrifugallyaccelerated outwards

This action creates a torque, which corresponds directly to the feed rate

The torque is measured with a measuring module (Schenck Process load cell)

Data communicated from the measuring module to Schenck ProcessDISOCONT® control system

Continuous Productionof Composite Cementson a Sustainable Basis

A key benefit of the Schenck Process

solution is its ability to instantly

change the % additive (secondary

constituents).

This allows the production of the

complete range of products on

a sustainable basis negating the

need for storage of each of the

different grades produced.

Bulk Material HandlingOur expertise in process automation includes bulk material handling applications such as loading, discharging, conveyingand material distribution and includes a range of solutions for the en masse handling of bulk solids and alternative fuels.

Vibrating and Screening TechnologyOur vibratory equipment masters even the most difficult bulk materials. From large lumps to the finest particles, wetor dry and irrespective of whether ores, scrap, lime dust or hot sinters up to 1,000 °C are used. Our range of products,applications and services comprises the planning, design and construction of complete plant sections including reliablecontrols and interfacing with higher-level data systems. These products and services are durable with a wide range ofpossible applications and are practically indestructible even under the most extreme conditions.

Weighing and Feeding TechnologyContinuously operating weighing and feeding systems from Schenck Process are widely used in many industriese.g. to feed coal dust efficiently into a rotary kiln during cement production. Our discontinuous scales can calculatethe precise addition of alloying agents in electric steelworks or the exact weight of a steel ladle weighing severaltonnes in a continuous casting plant.

Our wide range of products, applications and services include the installation of weighfeeders e.g. upstream ofblast furnaces for precise weighing of constituents to specific formulae as well as engineering & “turnkey” deliveryof complete systems designed to convey and feed alternative fuels.
