Reactions in the cement kiln
A number of phases are formed in the clinker feed before the burning zone proper is reached. These intermediate phases dissociate in the burning zone and are not therefore found in clinker but assist in forming the final clinker minerals. Sulfate melt phase At intermediate temperatures, sulfates combined with calcium and alkalis form a liquid ...
Laying the foundation for zero-carbon cement
Cement acts as the binder between aggregates (fine and coarse rocks) in the formation of concrete. While cement makes up only a small percentage of the mix (approximately 12 percent by volume), it is almost exclusively responsible for the resulting CO 2 emissions. In the cement-manufacturing process, raw materials are heated to …
