Process Optimization - Why?

To Reduce your Cost. (As simple as that!!) Costs mainly in a cement plant Energy Cost in Power consumed Cost of CO2 Credits Cost of Fuel -Thermal Energy Production Cost due to high variability of raw materials in the quarry, and stock pile Additives at the mill. Cost due to long transition times between products Cost due to high clinker content in final cement production.
