3 ·Type of Process There are mainly two types of Cement Manufacturing process Wet Process; Dry Process; Wet Process Under wet process type the raw materials are mixed with water so as to ensure better homogenization which leads to better quality of clinker In the whole process moisture content in the slurry is 35 50%
Portland cement is used around the world and used as a simple component of concrete mortar plaster etc the dry process is used when raw material are relatively hard This process is slow and its creation is expensive The wet process consist many operation like mixing burning and grinding to manufacture the cement
The kiln has to operate continuously in order to ensure a steady regime and therefore uniformity of clinker The larger existing kiln in a wet process plant produces 3600 tonnes of clinker per day The manufacture of cement by wet process is energy intensive and thus uneconomical as compared to dry process and semi dry process
·In the wet process concrete mixture typically ready mix concrete including all mix water is fed to the hopper of the machine and the mixture is then pumped to the nozzle where compressed air is added to accelerate the mix onto the application surface Fig Due to the reduced possibility of rebound large aggregates mm or larger are often used in
·Cement Manufacturing Industry Description and Practices The preparation of cement involves mining; crushing and grinding of raw materials princi the wet process The nitrogen oxide emissions can be reduced further to kg/t of clinker by after burning in a reducing atmosphere and the en
·Achieving the high early strength of cement based materials is a necessary condition for the rapid demolding of prefabricated buildings In this study kaolin treated by wet grinding process was utilized as an accelerator in Portland cement Wet grinded kaolin Portland cement system was designed and 1 4% wet grinded kaolin was added
·Cement plants have used new grinding equipment dry process instead of the wet process kiln modern clinker kilns and multi stage preheaters that can save energy [1] The use of blends with renewable fuel and fossil fuel [ 2 ] or the use of solar calcination reactors [ 3 ] can reduce emissions and save energy in cement manufacturing
Wet process kilns The original rotary cement kilns were called wet process kilns In their basic form they were relatively simple compared with modern developments The raw meal was supplied at ambient temperature in the form of a slurry A wet process kiln may be up to 200m long and 6m in diameter It has to be long because a lot of water
6 · II Wet Process Old Technology In the earlier part of the century from 1913 to 1960 the wet process was used for the manufacture of cement From 1913 onwards the cement industry underwent a number of changes mainly to suit the requirements of the manufacturers and the govt policies till early 1982
·In India the wet process has been replaced to a wide extent by the dry process mainly for fuel and heat economy However air pollution is reduced in the wet and semi dry processes Dry process modem technology is now preferred and adopted in most of the cement industries due to the following reasons
·5 CEMENT HISTORY In India Portland cement was first manufactured in 1904 near Madras by the South India Industrial this venture failed Between 1912 and 1913 the Indian Cement Co Ltd was established at Porbander Gujarat and by 1914 this Company was able to deliver about1000 tons of Portland cement By 1918 three factories were established
·The wet process is a relatively outdated method which is used less frequently as it is a less efficient process that produces higher emissions and typically creates lower quality cement
The wet process The raw material is ground in water 30 40 % of water and treated in a long kiln up to 250 m This process has practically been discontinued Only one plant was using this process in 2001 among 20 cement plants that were operating in France • The semi wet process
3D numerical model of a cement rotary kiln wet process with the use of CFD tools O Berten Vanlanduyt F Missaire B Leduc Author for correspondence Free University of Brussels
Clinker is the intermediate product used in the manufacturing of cement There are two primary processes used to manufacture clinker the dry process and the wet process Our plants use the dry process which is more energy efficient In the wet process the raw materials are mixed with water to form slurry which is fed into a kiln
·The Cement Production Process Cement kilns are massive cylindrical structures lined with refractory brick into which a lime bearing material and fuel such as coal or gas is fed From the wet process kiln to the 6 stage suspension preheater with a precalciner and high efficiency cooler specific heat consumption has fallen by about 50 per
·Cement is produced by a high temperature about 1500 °C reaction in a rotary kiln of carefully proportioned and blended ratios of lime CaO silica SiO 2 alumina Al 2 O 3 and iron oxide Fe 2 O 3 The production of cement is a chemical process requiring an accurate blend of the previously cited four key organic oxides and the limitation of several undesirable
·cement plants with wet process kilns is 3 05 006 and the six digit SCC for plants with dry process kilns is 3 05 007 Portland cement accounts for 95 percent of the hydraulic cement production in the United States The balance of domestic cement production is primarily masonry cement Both of these materials are
Wet Concrete All ingredients are mixed with water beforehand to form a slurry Application Dry Pour Applied dry and then wetted to start the curing process Wet Concrete Applied as a wet mixture and immediately begins curing Control Over Water Content Dry Pour Allows for precise control over the water content during application
The process of manufacturing cement involves mixing the calcareous and argillaceous components in a 3 1 ratio Following by mixing of the materials two processes can be followed to arrive at the final product of ordinary Portland cement The two processes include Wet Process; Dry Process; Fig 1 Cement Manufacturing Wet Process
In this paper we are discussing wet and dry process of Portland cement manufacture Wet process minerals are wet ground to form a slurry and in dry process minerals are dry ground to form a powder like substance In this paper we are discussing the comparison between wet process and dry process with various advantages and disadvantages

·Wet and semi wet process cement kilns Clays in general are both hydrophilic and fine and clays milled alone produce pumpable slurries with 60 70% water content although some comparatively rare "swelling" clays require much more water a bentonite clay paste with 95% water is practically solid
The making process of portland cement in the modern industry can be divided into the wet process dry process and semi dry process Nowadays the dry process is the most popular cement making process which is widely adopted by cement plants all over the world for its great advantages in energy saving and environmental protection
