Process characteristics of clinker and cement production
Continuous high temperature process in the cement industry: Calcination and cement clinker burning Calcination of raw material CaCO 3 => CaO + CO 2 Process emissions of raw material: = t CO 2 /t clinker Endotherm reaction at 950 °C ca. 1700 MJ/t clinker ≈ 50% of energy Cement clinker burning at 1450 °C formation of hydraulic
