Reducing carbon emissions in cement production through …

The basic chemistry of cement production starts with the calcination of limestone (CaCO 3) that produces calcium oxide (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO 2), followed by the clinkerization process in which the CaO reacts with the rest of the raw meal compounds at a very high temperature (Hewlett and Liska, 2019) to form the required …

Cement

There are four stages in the manufacture of portland cement: (1) crushing and grinding the raw materials, (2) blending the materials in the correct proportions, (3) burning the prepared mix in a kiln, and (4) grinding the burned product, known as " clinker," together with some 5 percent of gypsum (to control the time of set of the cement).

Understanding the Role of Clinker Grinding in Cement Production

Clinker is a critical component in the production of cement and forms the intermediate product during the cement manufacturing process. It can be best described as a nodular material, usually grayish in color, which is produced by sintering limestone and alumino-silicate materials such as clay at high temperatures in a cement kiln.
