    The cement manufacturing process involves quarrying raw materials such as limestone and clay, crushing and transporting them to the plant. The raw materials are then ground and preheated before being burned in a kiln at 1500°C to produce clinker. The clinker is cooled, ground with gypsum and other additives to produce cement powder, which is stored in silos before being packed and dispatched.

    3. CRUSHING & TRANSPORTATION

    1. BLASTING : The raw materials that are used to manufacture cement (mainly limestone and clay) are blasted
    from the quarry.
    2. TRANSPORT : The raw materials are loaded into a dumper.
    3. CRUSHING AND TRANSPORTATION : The raw materials, after crushing, are
    transported to the plant by conveyor. The plant stores the materials before they are Next
    homogenized.

    2. BURNING

    1. RAW GRINDING : The raw materials are very finely ground in order to produce the raw mix.
    2. BURNING : The raw mix is preheated before it goes into the kiln, which is heated by a flame that can
    be as hot as 2000 °C. The raw mix burns at 1500 °C producing clinker which, when it leaves the kiln, is
    rapidly cooled with air fans. So, the raw mix is burnt to produce clinker : the basic material needed to
    make cement.

    2. STORAGE, PACKING, DISPATCH

    1.GRINDING : The clinker and the gypsum are very finely ground giving a “pure cement”. Other secondary
    additives and cementitious materials can also be added to make a blended cement.

    2. STORAGE, PACKING, DISPATCH :The cement is stored in silos before being dispatched either in
    bulk or in bags to its final destination.
