WEBINAR - BEUMER: case studies from the cement industry

28 January 2025 - 28 January 2025


 

Introduction to alternative fuels in cement production

The presentation will begin with an overview of the growing importance of alternative fuels in the cement industry. With increased global focus on reducing carbon emissions, cement manufacturers are under pressure to adopt greener technologies. BEUMER has developed advanced systems that allow for the integration of alternative fuels, which are essential for reducing reliance on coal, oil, and natural gas. The speaker will introduce the types of alternative fuels that are gaining traction in the industry, such as refuse-derived fuel (RDF), biomass, and other waste-to-energy sources, setting the stage for the detailed case studies.

Real-world case studies: challenges and solutions

The core of the presentation will feature several case studies of recently executed projects, showcasing how BEUMER’s alternative fuel systems have been implemented in diverse operational environments. For each case, the speaker will outline the specific challenges faced by the cement plant, the tailored solution BEUMER developed, and the outcomes achieved.

Key factors for successful implementation

In addition to the case studies, the presentation will cover the key factors that influence the successful implementation of alternative fuel systems in cement plants. The speaker will discuss the importance of a thorough feasibility analysis, which considers the plant’s current fuel usage, available alternative fuel sources, regulatory requirements, and long-term sustainability goals. BEUMER’s approach to system design is highly customisable, ensuring that each solution is tailored to the specific needs of the plant, which is essential for maximising the benefits of alternative fuel integration.

System design and innovation

The presentation will delve into the technological innovations that set BEUMER’s alternative fuel systems apart. This section will cover how BEUMER’s engineering team approaches system design, focusing on flexibility, reliability, and efficiency. Key system components, such as material handling conveyors, dosing units, and feeding systems, will be discussed in detail, illustrating how these technologies ensure consistent fuel delivery to the kiln, even when dealing with variable fuel quality and composition. Attendees will gain an understanding of the technical expertise required to design systems that meet the demanding conditions of cement production.

Q&A and interactive discussion

Following the presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a Q&A session with the BEUMER expert. This will provide a chance to dive deeper into specific aspects of the case studies, ask about technical details, or inquire about how BEUMER’s solutions could be applied to their own operations. The session is designed to be interactive, encouraging dialogue and knowledge sharing between participants.
