In this presentation FCT will discuss about the process, the challenges and the different technologies to produce a high-quality calcined clay. As the choice of technology depends on the characteristics of the feedstock, FCT will present additional case studies as examples where the most suitable machinery (type of calciner, dryer, raw mill, cooler, color control) was selected according to these characteristics.
Cement is one of the world’s most vital industries and is the foundation of infrastructure and urban development. However, the industry is also responsible for more than 5% of the world’s manmade CO2 emissions. A transformational change is now underway, with the industry looking to reduce its carbon footprint in the interest of sustainability.
The use of supplementary cementitious material in Green Cement – including calcined clay - can reduce carbon emissions by up to 40% as there is virtually no release of CO2 from the clay.
Additionally, there are fuel and electrical consumption reduction when compared to clinker production process, making the clay calcination process interesting under the financial point of view as well.
