Mammoet is helping the industry to decarbonize by providing safe and efficient solutions for moving and installing heavy objects. This was the case for the construction of the first large-scale Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) plant for the cement plant at the Lengfurt site of Heidelberg Materials - one of the world‘s largest manufacturers of building materials.
Even during the summer break, developments in the cement, lime, and gypsum sectors continue as usual. In this issue of ZKG, Erik von Lützau, Gotthard Walter, and Sabine Flamme discuss the “Potentials of material and energy recovery of ETICS waste with EPS in the cement plant”, while Dr. Joachim Harder focuses on “The Future of Calcined Clay by 2035 and 2050”, and Olaf Köster, Michelle Rollié and Christian Speith report on “The Górażdże modernization project”.
The market for clay calcination is booming. However, up to now the production is not more than 0.05% of the global cement production, although it has been projected that by 2050 a global market share of 8% could be achieved. Is this still realistic? What are the main prospects and existing market barriers? Answers to these questions and more information is given in the following article.
A numerical simulation was carried out for a 6500T/D NSF-I precalciner in a China Resources Cement Plant. The coupling process between coal powder combustion and calcium carbonate decomposition was...
