An online conference focusing on sustainability in the cement industry
Tune in from anywhere in the world and learn about sustainability in the cement industry. Below are details on some of the presentations we have during the online conference.
In this presentation continuous emissions monitoring solutions for the cement industry are introduced.
In cement plants, the flue gas generally includes carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), mercury and dust. SO2 emissions are mostly derived from raw material, whereas more than half of the CO2 emissions come from the limestone calcination process and the rest are related to used fuel and the efficiency of the combustion process.
Cement manufacturers need to monitor these emissions continuously according to local emission regulations. The Waste Incineration Directive subjects co-incineration plants to the continuous measurement of hydrochloric acid (HCl), hydrogen fluoride (HF) and mercury (Hg), for example. The measuring of total organic carbon (TOC) is also mandatory.
Gasmet Technologies manufactures certified solutions for continuous emissions monitoring for cement plants.
In the last 10 years Turboden, in the frame of environmental sustainability, has successfully proposed and installed several waste heat recovery systems, based on Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology, to recover the thermal power available in cement waste gas and valorise it producing electricity. Still today, 30 – 35% of the energy input in cement production is lost in the off-gas. This waste is an economic loss and it can be leveraged using proven technologies, such as ORC, to benefit both the cement producers and the environment.
Join Turboden and find out how to save the heat and boost your cement process waste gas.
Join us for Aerzen’s presentation, which will cover two solutions for cement industry applications.
The first is the Turbo Technology for Combustion Air Applications focusing on energy savings (Kw per t), control of the burning process and OPEX reduction.
The second solution is rental for oil-free, low-pressure applications in a cement plant where some of the major processes suffer when using oil injected, high-pressure compressors where oil free machines have failed during operation. Renting oil free equipment for the proper application will guarantee zero down time in the daily operations.
Digital Transformation is reshaping the cement industry. In addition to improving their productivity, more and more companies are now focusing their efforts on improving the sustainability of their operations.
This presentation will cover a few sustainability success stories and show how digital technology can help you boost your sustainability efforts.
In this presentation thyssenkrupp will present their vision for a green polysius® cement plant, which is setting the industry on a path to a sustainable future.
