Cement Production (4-6)

4) Mixing bed
Mixing bed - the crushed limestone and clay is homogenized by stacking and reclaiming in a long layered stockpile. This material is then ready for milling and drying in the kiln.
5) Raw mill
Raw mill - the raw materials are milled and dried in a roller mill. Heavy rollers are held over a rotating table and the course material is milled until it is fine enough to be carried by air to a homogenizing silo.
6) Filter
Filter - bag filters comprise filters of either woven fabric or needle felts to remove particles from kiln exhaust. The exhaust gas from many kilns is used for drying raw materials, thus improving the energy efficiency of the plant.
