What Do We Understand About The Dry Process Of Cement Manufacturing?

 In dry and semi-dry processes for cement manufacturing, the raw materials will be crushed and then fed in the correct proportions. It is then added to the grinding mill. Then, the raw material will be dried and reduced in size to a fine powder in there.

The dry powder you will get there will be called the raw meal; then, the raw meal will be pumped into a blending silo. It is here where all kinds of adjustments are made. The proportions of the materials are fixed here as well. In short, the manufacture of cement is done in a silo.

Then the raw meal will be blended by passing compressed air to obtain a coagulated and uniform mixture. Compressed air will be induced upward. The upward movement of the powder will decrease the apparent density. The air will then be pumped over the quadrant of the silo. This will permit the heavier material from the non-aerated quadrants.

Therefore, the aerated powder that you will acquire will behave like a liquid. A uniform mixture will be obtained if it is aerated through the quadrants in turn for at least one hour. In some cement manufacturing plants like Surya Gold, continuous blending is used.

The blended meal then will be further passed through a sieve. After getting it through the drive, it will be fed into a rotating disc called a granulator. Finally, the quantity of water, about 12 % by weight, will be added to it to be blended into pellets.
