The theoretical energy consumption for producing cement can be calculated based on the enthalpy of formation of 1 kg of portland cement clinker, which is approximately 1.76 MJ. This calculation refers to reactants and products at 25°C and 0.101 MPa. In addition to the theoretical minimum heat requirements, energy is required to evaporate water ...

Energy use in the steel industry has been declining. A ten year historical trend (1991-2002) of the steel industry indicates that there has been a 38 percent decline in the total energy consumption used in the industry ().The largest portion, 34 percent of the decline in the total energy consumption occurred between 1998 and 2006.

The annual cement consumption in the world is around 1.7 billion tonnes and is increasing by 1% every year 1. Cement industries consume 5% of the total industrial energy utilised in the world 2. A total of 40% of the total energy consumption of a cement plant is used in clinker grinding in a ball mill to produce the nal cement product 3.

Compared to the pre-grinding systems including ball mills with high energy consumption and low efficiency, these cement mill roller presses consume less energy and produce lower noise. This roller press can improve the grinding capacity by 50- compared to ball mill systems and reduce the power consumption of the grinding system by 30-40% ...
